    After seeing what the doctors are willing to do to a person just to save their life, the shock of .. of what was done to my mom and the suffering she went thru, My family (brothers and wives and my father) chose DNR. It may sound insensitive and crude. But, we saw it as a better option. My mom had dementia. So, she didn’t really know who she was nor who all the people visiting her were. My wife spent a lot of time soothing her with words of her getting better. It hurt when she passed. But, it also felt like this was another stage of life. Soon it will be my turn. That ought to make you happy??

    Well, I do wish your mom will be better soon. Hope you are doing well, too.

    Oh, I forgot to mention, my mom did not speak English very well. And the dementia made English even more difficult for her. She couldn’t communicate her feelings or her needs to the staff. Towards the end, she spent more time sleeping than awake.

    Hi Laven

    I’m sorry to hear that your foster mom has been in hospital. I hope the surgery goes well and she gets to go home. It must be really hard for you and everyone else. Please remember to take care of yourself. She is in good hands with the doctors and nurses. This is a lot of stress and it is easy to forget about taking care of yourself during stressful times.

    Love and best wishes! ❤️🙏
