Ask HN: What has melted your brain recently?

I reached the same point. I am also helping terminally ill gentleman to have last comfortable days of his life. I literally see how the time is running out.

My wish is to finish my projects allowing my relatives to live ramen-comfortable life without me. Maybe I manage to retire and enjoy the life by myself for a while. I became very materialistic growing up in poverty.

Goodonya. Caring for the dying changes you in so many ways and can be an ultimately positive milestone of maturity. It can really take it out of you too, so make sure to get enough help to be a help.

Currently trying to introspect on this one myself. I'm really not sure how to "get over it".
