Hugs to you and your sister. Not an easy situation to navigate.
I'm glad you have your sister, and that she has you to share the burden.

This is when I become an advocate for drugs like marijuana, mushrooms, LSD, DMT... These are all drugs that should be used when someone is making that transition from life to death. Or just used for fun recreationally if one is being responsible.

Hugs, remember the good times

Good morning baby girl. I hope today is a better day for you. I guess I will start by telling you about my baby boy Jacob. I grew up in Franklin, NC, but I spent most of my adult life in CA-- mostly in San Francisco. I came home 13 years ago and met his mother at a club. I went home with her and we kicked it for a couple of weeks. I didn't know her AT ALL. The more I got to know her, the less I liked her. She told me she was pregnant. I demanded DNA testing. It came back 99.997 per cent. To my credit, I have been a very dutiful father to Jacob for his entire life. Although I really don't like his Mom as a person, we have learned how to co parent. I LOVE MY JACOB!

Had to deal with parents who had dementia as well. It was very difficult when their immune systems break down they often succumb to pneumonia.

It's a terribly tough decision but if you really feel that you know what your mother's wishes would have been (or if she has an advance directive) you can feel a bit better knowing you are doing what she would do if she were still cognitively able to make those choices. <3 So very sorry, it's never easy. Many of us have been there.

Sad.

I am sorry for your loss. We went through something similar with a relative a few years ago. It is a very difficult decision.

So sorry. Dementia is such a horrible illness

And THIS is when I wish people could be as lucky as any dog I own who is too old to enjoy life and in pain, can't see, can't hear, and when the tail can't wag, it's over. I also belong to a Right To Die group..... and they don't let each other suffer. And you know what? Sometimes "ALL of her meds" could be making her worse than she should be. Look at it this way. You are no longer interfering with nature. And there is nothing wrong with that. <3 <3

My sincerest sympathies for your ordeal, and your mother's condition.
It's never easy. Hopefully, the end comes peacefully and quickly.

Just went through this with my wife of 30 years. She had gone deaf and blind from Muscular Dystrophy. Her instructions were to not call the doctor if she were having breathing issues. She was having some issues, I just curled up next to her and held her. She smiled.
