Just got back from the ICU.
Not fun.
Pretty much a matter of time now.

Death be not proud. We achieve our measure of immortality through the people whose lives we have changed forever who live on after us. Your grandmother will always live in your heart, and what she taught your mother or father is what they have taught you and what you will teach your kids.

May this chain of life and love always be unbroken.

Ugh, that's bad. My thoughts to you and your family.

I never ever want to be on a respirator. In fact it's in my living will that if I'm so far gone that I require one, just load me up with a happy drug cocktail and let me go.

Not a nice situation seeing a loved one die in front of you, but be there for her. :'(

She passed away with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren around her bedside. We were singing her favorite song when the monitors flatlined. It was the most emotional night of my life. I believe she's in a better place now.

Good that the family could be with her to the end.
Condolences.

Hopefully she knew that she was surrounded by so much love.

This is family. This is love. This is the fragile human candle that, against all odds, stays lit against the cold, dark night.

When your grief passes, it is this loving memory of four generations of your family united in song, defiant against death, that you will have with you always.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Watching a loved one die is the most painful (physically and emotionally) thing I have ever endured.

I think its really nice you were singing for her at the end. I hope that when my time comes I'm surrounded by loving family too.

Sorry to hear that man. It's never an easy thing to go through but at least she had her family around her and I'm sure she took a lot of comfort in that.

You have my deepest sympathies.

RIP - she is in a better place now.

Death is always hardest on the living.
