I've had to watch a person die from emphysema, and it is truly one of the slowest, most horrible ways a person can go. She will get to pass peacefully and that's a blessing for her, though of course those who love her will be heartbroken.flurriousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12065579.post-50985444856054954732011-08-12T09:28:56.359-04:002011-08-12T09:28:56.359-04:00Everyone is going to die.

They were going on their happy way and everything was ended all at once.They had no warning. <br /><br /> My Mother in Law fought breast cancer. She had a very aggressive form that the doctors told her she would die from. They gave her two years, and she lived seven. Having lived through losing my parents in one fell swoop and then having my mother In Law have the opportunity to prepare for death. I'm still not certain which is better or worse. It is what it is. However, when you know your days are numbered fewer than most, you tend to live your life to the fullest and appreciate it more. My Mother In Law traveled. She went to Europe, Egypt and the Mediterranean. She even convinced my cheap ass Father In Law to appreciate life with her and to go on those trips with her. She LIVED her LIFE to the FULLEST. I pray your Mom can do so as well. Hell, for all we know, an asteroid could come and end it for all of us. Nobody truly knows what the future holds so make sure to live every day as if it is your last.

It must not be an easy choice to make, but I think I would have made the same decision, at her age.<br /><br />P.S. I really enjoy our 'blendship'!

And I'm sorry this is happening. It sucks. I don't know if it's better to have a warning about these kinds of things or not.

...WOW, what a thought and what a position to be in.<br /> I lost my Mum in 2009 and had some regrets about her knowing how much I loved her as she was taken from us very suddenly but as she had been diagnosed with Leaukemia several years earlier I always tried to speak to her whenever I could and was lucky we always lived close. <br />It is difficult to reconcile yourself when things like this happen but as you state at the end there are some plus points to knowing when your time is up.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14582567175147193734noreply@blogger.com
