I want to thank everyone for the prayers and wishes.
She crashed again and whispered this last Sunday she didn't want to live like this so we issued a DNR last Sunday.
Monday they through her on a ventilator. I asked the doctor what part of DNR he doesn't understand. He said he made the call. Discussion didn't go well and still pissed.
They turned the machines off Tuesday evening after some family flew in. And she died a couple hours later.
Best thing for her. still on her own terms......you have to respect that....bob

Moms gotta be one of the harder goodbyes we say in this world
Condolences Joel, sorry her Doc had to make this harder than it already was
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

Thanks everyone. Appreciate it.
She's happy now. She always said she was gonna have big heart to heart with the Lord on why some people get taken early and then she's going dancing.
She knew she had a good life and raised a good family. She was ready to walk again

Deep condolences....................losing a mother like that is never easy no matter the circumstances.
Mine went a similar route from different causes & even when you know it's inevitable, it's still hard to come to grips with when it happens.

I feel sorry for whoever she talks to in heaven. Besides the thing about some are taken to early and POS's live forever. When she finds out she was listed as covid as cause of death, she's gonna come unglued.
