She has stopped eating, drinks only a few sips a day, sleeps for over 23 of the 24 hours in a day, but is at her very favorite place on earth....the lake. She and my grandfather spent most of their retired life on this lake...he died of a heart attack there and now she is dying. If you had to choose a place to live out your last days, it is the perfect place:) She is warm, comfortable, and pain free. My incredible sister has been taking unbelievable care of her along with my mom and aunt. Right at this moment, she is sound asleep in her favorite chair in front of the fireplace with everyone around her. When she wakes up, for the very short periods of time throughout the day, she sees someone who loves her. She is not plugged into machines in a sterile hospital room. She IS where she belongs.
I know this is hard for you, but how wonderful that she is leaving one heavenly place and entering another one. Thoughts and prayers are with you.
