In this emotionally intense and longer-than-usual episode, we continue the story of Jorge’s final days in the hospital. As the reality of what’s to come sets in, we reflect on the overwhelming grief, the small moments of connection, and the quiet acts of love that defined his final hours.

Through raw and heartfelt conversations, we share what it was like to sit at his bedside, to hold onto hope even when we knew the end was near, and to begin the impossible process of saying goodbye. We talk about the power of community during this time—how opening the space for others to say their goodbyes created moments of both beauty and unbearable pain.

Jorge’s final act of generosity came in the form of organ donation—a selfless gift that gave life to others even as his own came to an end. This choice brought a bittersweet sense of purpose amid the devastation and left a lasting legacy of love and compassion.

This episode is a tribute to Jorge’s life, his strength, and the heartbreaking journey of letting go. Thank you for sitting with us in this sacred space.

Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of death, deep grief, medical experiences, and significant loss.
