Guest guest Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Mom was in the last stages for over a year. She had some signs but not all of them. Then toward the last I feel she helped her dying along. She quit eating then quit drinking. I think she had had enough and felt it was time to go. My Mom ,in her right mind, didn't want to be a burden on anyone. I feel she had lucid moments and in those moments she decided to put an end to the pain and confusion she was in. One of the things I noticed about a month before she passed is the pain she was in when anyone touched her. No matter how gentle you tried to be she hurt when touched. She also black and blued easily. My only regret is that she was in a Hospice unit and not at home when she passed away. I was with her but she wanted to be in her own bed. She was put in the unit because they could care for her better than I could at that point. My Prayers and Hugs go out to you and your family, Jacqui Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
