[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the replies and sympathy.
I think it's a really good point that I don't have to make a goodbye official. It can be a goodbye in my head even if it's not a goodbye in his. Since the trip will be a fairly major endeavor and I have a newborn especially I've been hesitating.[/quote]

Even for yourself,  don't think of it so much as a goodbye, but as a way to save her the last moments that you have with him. And since you will bring your newborn, this is a wonderful way to focus the visit. You can focus on how fun it will be to show him the newborn, even if, let's face it, newborns need some work. But they are not as much trouble a if, let's face it, newborns need some work. But the  baby will sleep a lot, leaving you time to sit quietly with him the rest of the time. As I experienced from when my father passed on, it's great just to be there, to show up and say hi I came to see you because I love you and wanted to spend time with you. [/quote]
