Re: Depressed, Waiting on Grandma to Die
I just got a text from a lifelong friend saying he's got just weeks to live...he's in the ICU with heart failure, at 76...he has two children and lots of grandchildren but the hospital will only allow one visitor per day...
I never forgive and I never forget

Re: Depressed, Waiting on Grandma to Die
Why are all you people sorry? You didn’t kill her.

I don’t understand when people apologize for natural deaths of old people.

They are free from this HELL prison. I ENVY them.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78901513


Context bro. Expressions used for different purposes, expressing empathy, sympathy for the pain of loss. Can be hard to leave loved ones. That said, you're right about freedom.

So sorry you can't go see her. She knows you love her, but it's hard even under the "best" circumstances.

I realize it’s such a fucking girlie thing.... but take colored pencils to paper and just go abstract. Let the heartache flow through you to the paper. And then treasure those creations. Because you and your feelings are important.

Re: Depressed, Waiting on Grandma to Die
I'm going through the same thing. My Aunt who raised me is in hospice. We took a trip to pay our respects and comfort her. She's on morphine but her mind is sharp when she's was awake.

I went through the same thing with my father. He died of lung cancer that spread into his brain. It wasn't a pretty sight seeing a strong man go out like that.

All you can do is make her last moments a little better and comfort the family.

Sorry to hear about your Grandmother, Dace. Be there for the family. Stay strong.

Try to be in high spirits when you're visiting. It does release endorphins. Make the time she has left as positive as possible. It's hard in the moment.

I don’t understand how all this old people’s homes are infested with corona.

My mother in-law died yesterday at 74. 89 is a good innings,
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79017561


forced mask wearing causes causes your body to have a lowered oxygen state...that in turn makes your bodys immune system panic because vitals are ok but oxygen is lowering [because of the mask]....your body produces antibodies to search for the cause of oxygen levels depleting...but cannot do anything [take off the mask].... [fast forward some time since wearing for couple months now]...

more uptick in cases, especially in areas where mask wearing is being heavily enforced, the people that believe the lie to such an extent that they wear and follow the "recommended" guidelines, are killing themselves thru self harm by MEDIA... and that is just common sense...lowered oxygen = antibodies = false positives ...no false positive? extend phases...more enforcement of mask --- more positives ...leading to vaccine for the killshot.
 Quoting: Doctor Manhattan


Eating acidic food for decades and 5G radiation puts you into metabolic acidosis which means less oxygen in your cell s so they have trouble regenerating and you get diseases and cancers.

If you consume alkaline foods and get your body pH back up to 7.35-7.45 you can't get any disease or cancers.

Anyone seriously ill or with cancer, check their pH and i bet it is 6ish or lower.

Re: Depressed, Waiting on Grandma to Die
She was spry and active until now, besides being 89.

Got a call this morning from her nursing home, she’s stopped eating, drinking, talking and walking... they called in hospice and ordered her a ‘comfort kit’ to have on standby. Said she has full body muscle pain and she yells if touched anywhere.

Said she has Covid. 8 workers tested positive and already had 7 patient deaths.

She basically raised me and I can’t go see her.

Gonna go get some beer.

And it doesn’t help when people are extremely sensitive and emotional. I do know that.

I know of a person who is in hospice care... lung and liver cancer... it’s sad.

Re: Depressed, Waiting on Grandma to Die
Sorry, you're going through this... losing elders saddens me quite a lot, we lose all the stories they could tell us.
Family history and gossip from decades back.

If she's hurting from Covid that bad the hospice "kit" has some morphine in it to sooth her and keep her calm.

Not wanting food or water is a normal stage, don't worry.

You can't do anything to help her out yourself but maybe say a little prayer for her that her passing goes quickly and for angels to surround her.

Hospice nurses are usually very kind hearted people.

When my Dad passed they turned on a little country music radio and had a fan gently blowing on him and more fluffy pillows that I'd ever seen on a bed.

Same here. Lost Dad at 92 in 2017. I happy he's at peace and reunited with Mom. He was a WWII vet. Thank God he didn't have to see the shit going on now.
