I myself have never been in one but I remember the day my mom died . I was there at the hospital with her. She had trouble breathing due to a blood clot on the lung. She lacked oxygen to the brain. Was brain dead. They were going to put her on life support but mom made it clear beforehand that she didn't want to live that one. We honored her wishes. She died 5 days after Mother's Day.

I admire that you went with your mums wishes. sorry that you had to watch someone you love die that way. Brain death, there is no coming back from that. you did the right thing.

My mom had bone cancer at the age of 38 and now at the age of 50 or so she has breast cancer. 😭

I also deal with my daily headaches due to my condition so I've been in and out of the hospital a lot. 😞
