[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My grandmother is dying. She is my last living grand-relative. She is 85 and had emergency surgery last week to take out part of her small intestine. The surgery is complicated on anyone but on someone her age it has resulted in several clinical complications, which have, in turn, led to an incredibly rough road to recovery. The road is uphill and she has told us she isn't prepared for the battle. She is being moved to hospice (very much her own decision) tonight. I'm happy that she has the opportunity to die with dignity, in a way that makes her most comfortable, but I'm sad for my father and aunt who are still incredibly close with their mother.

No advice needed, just sort of wanted to share.[/quote]

I am very sorry to hear that OP.  I am going through something similar.  It's really hard b/c my relative has been struggling for several years now and it is heartbreaking to see them struggle, and be immobile, and be in pain.  Good luck and hugs to you.  [/quote]
