Facing Loss and Finding Forgiveness: The Reality of Caring for Dying Parents with Sue Ketterer
In this episode, Mathew, Troy, and Sue discuss her journey of becoming a caregiver to her parents, first her father and then her mother, and how their deaths impacted her. She talks about the challenges and emotional toll of watching her parents decline and eventually pass away. Sue also tells us that despite the immense loss and heartache, she found strength and resilience.
Sue recalls the open and honest conversations about end-of-life care decisions she had with her mother and shines a light on the painful realities of taking someone off life support. After losing her mother, Sue felt a deep sense of guilt and responsibility but found solace and healing through Spiritualism and The Four Agreements, which taught her to stop judging others to find forgiveness for herself.
Sue honors her parents in death by regularly speaking to them and about them, and she finds comfort in holding space for grief and being there for others. Despite the pain of loss, she believes that forgiveness and self-love are crucial in finding peace. PLEASE MAKE SURE you stick around til the end to hear Sue read the poem, you'll be glad you did.
“Your words can be poison or they can be magic.”
