Mom talked to Sue today. She told mom that she was grateful they had the last four years together because they weren't supposed to have that long. It has apparently been a brutal past few days with a lot of suffering. It's heartbreaking. I will keep you posted as I find out anything.

Living wills help, but not if the family is going to ignore them.

Back when I worked at Baptist (Knoxville), we’d have these poor women in surgical ICU who had been eviscerated (that was the term they actually used) for advanced uterine or ovarian cancer, in comas, and the families wouldn’t let them go. Heartbreaking.

I've always told Tiffany, and the girls, to not do that if something happened to me. If I'm nit gonna recover, then no need to run up a bill. On the other side, idk if I could let go if it was them. Hatd situation.

The dwindling is just life, I guess. Mine have dwindled down quite a bit over the past 10 years. As far as your kids not wanting kids, my two are the same. Sometimes, their choices confound me and other times I totally understand.
