Amy, we pretty well finalized the after passing issues today. It was not at all presumptuous of you to bring it up. We are making decisions as a family - all have input. We are now taking turns staying at the hospital with Mom, day and night. We know the end is near; breathing has changed, etc.

Dragan, Mark, Anne-Marie and Shar - thank you so much for your advice and well wishes. This forum has been a source of information and inspiration for me and some of my family members.........
