Dawnie, I feel so much for you at this time. A big part of my work is end-of-life care and that includes looking after the relatives. |

absolutely heartbreaking isn't it, all you can hope for is a peaceful end to her suffering - my Dad wanted to die and it broke my heart when he told me one day in hospital "Go home now and forget all about me" Makes me cry now just thinking about it - how could I, but he didn't want me to grieve |

Dawn, it is so hard when you know somebody you love wants to leave you behind, and it is even harder to see them suffering. It was the same with my dad, he was 93 and in the end just more or less turned his face to the wall and went to sleep. He was never the same after my Mum died - they were married 60 years all but a month and he couldn't get on with life without her. |
