It will start with a series of letters. The shorter ones first for those who matter and have mattered and who deserve a personal note. Of course, colleagues will fall into that category. Perhaps a single one for all. The professionals who tried to treat it will get one too. It won’t be their fault. Some things just can’t be fixed. The family will be next. As the longest connections they deserve individual ones but it depends on available emotional bandwidth when the plane does decide to taxi.
Then come the most important notes. For the loved ones. I don’t know if everyone will understand, but if anyone will it’s them. Witnesses to the dread. Those who attempted to make all this bearable. One letter will be the longest. It’ll have passwords and bank accounts and instructions on accessing leave behinds.
The last would be an overall one. A final narration of why.
