So sorry to hear Julien.  Please keep strong and make sure that there is at least one safe place to go to in the coming weeks. 
 
I lost my dad when I was 16 in 1970 and my mom this year when she was one week away from turning 99. 
 
Peace,  Clint

Sorry that you and your family have to endure this. I hope that your Mom is as comfortable as she can be in her condition. My thoughts and prayers are with you guys.

We are going tomorrow. I'll try to update from there. I know she is ready to go, she really is past ready. She is a shell of her self. I count death after a long life as a blessing. Sometimes I think we should mourn when a child is born and rejoice when a life is lived and the time in this world comes to an end. What kind of life is it when you no longer know anyone, can't feed yourself, can't get out of bed, incontinent, and blind? Maybe I am wrong but I will be glad to see the end of this sort of life for her but I believe I know where she is going and am happy for it.
 
Maybe she will have a lucid moment and know me... who knows? She is tough though, she has lived this long, she may fool them and keep on going but I doubt it. Hospice has discontinued all her meds except meds to make her comfortable.
 
Thanks everyone and Roy, I will be praying for you.

She will be rejoicing in a better place, Julien. Strength to you, Bro.

Mom passed at 6:30 PM this evening. We are OK. I had my hand on her head and my sister had one hand, my wife holding the other.
Thank you all.

Very sorry to hear about it Julien.  It's the one thing left that I'll have to deal with.  My Mom's younger sister (my aunt) just passed away two weeks ago at 82 so my Mom is the only semi-close relative I have left and will definitely be the hardest for me to handle when that time comes.
