Not if I had to give up the many good memories I had with my Parents. Mom called me one day to tell me Dad woke up completely deaf. I told her I would be over directly to drive him to the Doctor.
Turns out his ears were full of ear wax *a problem for those who use a lot of Q-Tips*. He got his full hearing back plus no more ringing in his ears from a *childhood accident.*
When Dad passed I became the soul caregiver to my mother, And moved in. I would ask my sister who lived near by to come and heat up a bowl of Soup for Mom. Sundays was the only day Mom didn't have the Bus to take to her Day Care Center. My sister said she would come only if I paid her. She lived 3 miles from Mom. Wanted to get paid to heat up a bowl of soup.
Now my sister wants me to sell this home I am in and give her the money. This is my home. I have lived here. I paid the bills and upkeep and Sister wants the house.
Isn't going to happen. Nope!

Back to your question... a do-over? I think not. I had a good life. I was loved by my parents. A do over maybe to relive those good days... but no, I had a happy fulfilling life. There is nothing I would change.
