[quote=Anonymous]We did this. We sat bedside at my mIL's ICU room (in near coma) and then hospice for 5 weeks. We worked from AL. In the evening we took care of our kids. We played her favorite music for her. Sometimes we put a movie on an IPAD that she maybe watched. We set up video calls daily with siblings, nephews, nieces, friends. We said prayers aloud. A lot of the time we were silent and just there. You will feel relieved that you did this, later on. We happened to be there in the actual moment she passed and I was relieved that she didn't go alone. [/quote]
