AITA for not telling my wife and daughter that I’m dying?

I don't even know where to start...

First, please let me say that I am sorry you are dying of cancer. My Mom has breast cancer and she was NOT wanting to do treatments (I was able to talk her into chemo), and I am grateful she did. She was unable to continue them and I have no idea whether or not she is actually in remission.

My POV is very different from everyone on this thread. My husband died via suicide and there is nothing I wouldn't give to have lasting moments and memories with him. I miss him every moment of the day.

Please, OP tell your wife (at least), it is a hard life (life insurance or not) without her person. Please give her the memories she will cherish after you are gone of late-night cuddles, talking about the future (of your daughter), and the amazing person she is and will become.

Had I known my days and moments were limited with my husband, there are so many things I would have said and done. Please don't rob your beloved wife of this. She deserves better than this and so you.

As a widow, YTA.
