Tonight mom died. I got there an hour or two before and she smiled when I said I was there. She slept most of the last two days but her mind was good up until a couple of days before when she has been hallucinating some and talking to her stuffed animal. The cancer wasn't painful as expected so didn't need morphine. One day less than 3 weeks and most good days. Dozens of visitors and no unfinished business so the best that could be expected from terminal cancer.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

My condolences, cronewitch, to you and to your family. Your mother sounds like a remarkable person. I'm so glad she was able to see so many of her loved ones, and they her, before it came to be her time to pass. Blessed be, all of you.

And I would just like to say a word about Hospice-if you are ever in a terminal state, it doesn't have to be cancer, please consider letting Hospice get involved.

Crone, I'm so sorry. It's good that you and your family got to spend some time with her. Three weeks is so sudden - be sure to take some time for yourself to heal.

I'm stunned. Somehow I only saw this thread today. I've always thought of crone's mother as one of those people that would last forever. I'm so sorry she is gone. But if she was going to have cancer this 3 week window is about the kindest I have seen. Enough time to take care of business but she didn't have to suffer much. Prayers for you and yours crone
