Death is uncertain. You could have planned a million ways to make sure your loved ones go out peacefully, and you must have thought of the perfect ways of saying farewell, but in truth, you can’t plan death.
So when the ones you know do not have long, ask for some little things, it is advised that you fulfill their wishes. And that is what Twitter user Adam Schemm did for his grandfather.
Schemm’s grandad wanted to have one last beer with his sons before he moved on.
My grandfather passed away today.

I lost my grandpa a year ago. It took all his strength but we got him out to eat the best steak money could buy. Besides steak, all he wanted was a ‘Wisconsin’ Old Fashion and to try espresso for the first time. He was alive for one more night before he passed 7 days later. pic.twitter.com/eF2HagGcx4

It is truly heartwarming to see people getting to do what they wanted before they move on from this life. So don’t waste any of your time waiting for a tomorrow if you have a loved one who needs you, be there now!
