[quote=Anonymous]My brother had a MAID after a traumatic accident (and he had some serious medical conditions prior to that as well). It's really hard, OP, because nothing prepares you for this. Please don't worry about what to say or do. Just try to sit with everything as much as you can. It's OK to take breaks, especially to get outside for a bit and get some fresh air. We just sat with him, held his hands sometimes, talked a little bit, talked to him a little bit, and just made it peaceful. Don't pressure yourself to say the perfect goodbye. If you can, a heartfelt thanks for being in your life or something like that is fine. Try to breath and be peaceful and focus on the fact that he got to make this choice, which doesn't happen for most people, and that you got to be with him. Best wishes to you and your family, OP.[/quote]
