OH, BH1, I am so sorry to hear your news. My heart and prayers to you. My father passed three years ago and I still miss him intensely. It's such a hard thing to lose a parent. Big hugs to you both, RR and BH1.

Ellen my thoughts and prayers are with you and your father during this difficult time, and especially your mother, I pray that her passing is a quiet, painless relief from what she's been going through. BH1, please accept my sincere condolences. |

BH2, I am so sorry for your loss. My update: I am in the US and my mother is still breathing and her heart is still beating. She is apparently in a coma at this point (not being a medical professional myself, I'm just passing along what the hospice staff is telling me) and we are just waiting. She is what might arguably the most fantastic hospice residence on the planet. The place is pretty new, staffed up the wazhoo and she is getting absolute top notch care. I am incredibly grateful for the people who are caring for her: they are kind, considerate, knowledgeable and are doing everything in their power to ease her passing and keep us informed and comfortable with the process. That said, dying is much harder than I imagined it to be. She has been ill for so very long and her body has just about given up. It is horrible, and I mean *horrible* to sit next to her and hear her breathing, watch her heart pumping at 130 beats per minute and just wish that her body would give it up. I am completely torn on the feelings of wishing her to be free (of what? she's not in pain given the great care she is getting) and not wanting her to be dead. My father is just torn apart, with the same emotions of not wanting to wish his wife were dead, but really wanting the whole thing to be over (this is a life we are talking about!). So, we're a bit of a mess. When this is all over, I want to start a discussion thread about death and dying. I'd love to get some clinical input from our knowledgeable medical professionals, and I'd love to hear others thoughts and feelings about it all. |

to you RR. I have yet to experience the loss of a good friend or family member so I truly can't imagine what you're going through. I'm so glad she's getting the care she needs. to mom and to you and your dad.
