CMV: The best thing you can do when someone is dying is to hold their hand.

My dad is currently dying. I was in tears because I couldn't hold his hand without him trying to pull away. I held his hand once and he asked me if I was hurting him, so I let go. <br><br>My sister is the only one who was able to hold his hand for a period of time. She was able to get a bit of a rest. I am now back at the hospital and I feel like I'm losing my chance to say goodbye. I'm crying because I don't want to let go, but I have to.
