What is the hardest decision you made in your life?

Only because I knew it would upset my mom. I had been accepted into a post-grad program and was about to move down there 500 miles away, when my mother fell ill and developed heart failure (Dr's think it was a virus) and was given a grave prognosis. Heart transplant or get her affairs in order. She was not about to have a heart transplant. As soon as I heard, I called the school and declined my placement. Mom was livid, and we got into it. I told her (or rather yelled) she did not raise a daughter who would abandon her during a crisis. She got me to talk to my advisor at the local university I had just graduated from. They found another program in a different field altogether and got me in . Grades matter! As it turned out, having an apartment in town was beneficial because my mom was always at the doctors, and my parents would stay with me. She saw me graduate from that program and nearly made it to my wedding, but fell a couple of months short. She met my husband (to be) and thought the world of him. I had her blessing. As it turns out, everything good in my life since then was a result of that decision.

I’m still pretty young, but the hardest decision I’ve made so far was breaking off an engagement. I really broke his heart.

Moving my family 800 miles away from everyone we knew. It was the right thing to do, though painful.

Knowing my mom couldn't be helped in any way and the kindest thing to do was take her off her meds, stop intervening and let her pass.

Not the hardest I've had to make ...but I've cut many people out of my life to protect my mental and emotional health

Telling the doctors at the hospital to stop trying to revive my oldest son

I would have gotten on the bus no matter what.

I have a few idk . Wby

The first one was closing down my business and moving to Florida to take care of my dad who had cancer. I closed it five to six years before I had planned on knowing it would hurt my retirement.

Broke curfew that last time.
