Ultimately, the decision about how to honor a loved one rests with the family, guided by professional advice when necessary.
While some doctors may occasionally recommend caution depending on the circumstances, their goal is not to prevent meaningful farewells.
Rather, it is to balance compassion with safety and ensure that families can grieve without unnecessary risk.
In the end, every goodbye is unique.
What matters most is the love, memories, and connection that remain long after the final farewell.
