I think he's telling this story to his hypothetical son, The one he would have had if she wasn't dying

'When i met your mother' Couldnt have had the son he's talking to as she died

So he's just left with the memories of her and the regret of what could have been (Even though the regret isn't his fault)

Life can do terrible things.

well, it could also be a first hand experience that HE is the kid that's being told the story by his father who lost his mother to a disease way back when...? Or it could be a friend or a band member's story... You know?

Indeedio, Just my interpretation though =P

Could easily be either, though i think i may be reading too much into it

i can attest to that.
