As humans we can only hope to be so ready when our time comes and to have loved and enjoyed the life we had lived. We don't know what's waiting for us and this manga helps give some hope or idea of what is to come but all the hope in the world can't change the inevitable. I thank the author for telling such tales and showing different sides of the one thing all humans will eventually meet. Our end. I hope to those who read this a long fulfilling life and when the time comes you find peace with what you have done and the life you've lived.
The photo at the end, where Sao is with Takazeki at his wedding, Sao is smiling. It's the photo where Sao is the most stricken by his disease, yet it's the only photo where Sao is smiling.
When they mentioned he might have a life so satisfying he didn't need to look back and how clear that he trust his partner so much it really made me cry.
