I was pursuing a dream career and sacrificed my health, social life and financial stability for it, eventually when it wasn't working out I sacrificed that dream to get a more stable job
Last year my own father was diagnosed with cancer, thankfully relatively slow and treatable, but I made the choice to sacrifice elements of my career progression, as well as elements of my relationship, to be able to be there and help support him until things were stable and treatment underway. He kept telling me I didn't need to, but I chose to make that sacrifice because he has always been a good supportive caring father and I wasn't going to abandon him.
>>12881417 is spot on. He is making the choice to not be there for his father, because he would rather pursue his career. That's his choice, he should own it, not play the victim card for sympathy at his own decision. That's the sacrifice he chose to make, if he doesn't like his choice he can change it, he has every right to discuss the unfairness or difficulty of HAVING to make the choice or the difficulty of what his father is going to, but "i can't be there" is bullshit, he could but has made his choice he has no right to bitch about the choice he made.
