[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm fairly certain that mine basically starved to death. No one could get her to eat at all for the last 6 months[/quote] Same and same with a father who didn’t have dementia. Two weeks of liquid only and he was gone. It’s not like they are “choosing” intermittent fasting and can hang on for years like this the way a healthy 40-something might. It is different. It is the mind and body shutting down together. [/quote] The obsession in the country to extend “life” no matter the cost or no matter how infirm someone is is really sad. Death is a part of life. If I learn I have dementia, I will def plan for euthanasia rather than burden my children with these types of emotional, physical, and financial issues that they are left to deal with when I don’t even know who they are anymore.
