Friend’s company is asking people to donate their PTO so a long time employee (~10 years) can spend time with his dying wife.

Tried to post the screen shot but apparently that’s not allowed. The guys wife has an aggressive brain tumor and he only has weeks left to spend with her. HR sent out a letter to everyone in the company asking for voluntary PTO donations so the guy can take time off to be with her… instead of you know.. just giving the guy some time off after he gave you 10 years of his time. Maybe this is common practice? But seeing the screenshot left me speechless.
