Q: Felt like it was my fault

2 years ago my best mate danny died following a stroke. As he was lying in hospital, he said that if he were to suffer any more etc (DNR). I couldnt grasp the concept of what he was saying, but I had no right to talk him out of it. However, when he began to slip away, I felt so helpless, like I should help. HE might have been ready to go but I wasnt ready to let go. Yet I didnt do anything. I sat and held his hand and cried, while he slipped away from me. I feel so responsible, as he was with me when he had his stroke and when he died. I don;t know how to let go, how to feel less responsible.
What do I do?
Because after two years of grieveing I don't want to do something stupid and put my family through all I'm going through
Please help me
Thankyou xxx
