My grandfather just had his 83rd birthday, and he went on and on about looking ahead to 90. I hope he makes it, I hope his brain makes it. I hope all of him makes it.
I'm so sorry to hear your family is having such a hard time right now. When my grandmother was dying it took longer than it should have and she spent days suffering, unable to communicate or take care of herself. Weeks would be much much more difficult.
If there is anything I can offer to lift your spirits and help you through this, I'm here..
I know it would be hard on your mom, but when I worked in hospice, sometimes we encouraged people to say good bye, and have it be the last time, no matter what.
I feel for you are your family, and sincerley hope it all is over soon..
Something about spring...sucks. Most of my relatives have died in the spring. A friend of mine just lost her mother last week. Hang in there sweetie-we love you!

There's so much we can't control about death and people...I don't know if there really is such a thing as a "nice death" or "happy grieving"...I can imagine you seeing two people suffer, mom and grandmom, makes it doubly hard...I can understand your wanting it to just end.

I don't want to go through what you are.
