And I was there for the both of them as they took their last breath of life here on this earth.
Perhaps God planned it that way.
Perhaps it's a honor for God to allow you be there for them.
I was at the hospice where my mom stayed at the last 5 days of her life, but the way things worked out the nurse told us that she was ready to die soon so I told my brother to go get my other brother and step father and bring them there to be there for when she dies.
I told my mom to hang in there for they were on their way.... but it was not so.
Even the nurse stepped out of the room, I was the only person in this world to be with my mom when she died.
I could hear he whisper to me " I tried " or " I'm tired " right before she died.
When the doctor told the whole family that the arteries to her colon were blocked I think my mom knew it was the end.
She had a heart attack about 2 weeks earlier, and her kidneys stopped functioning.
But the arteriosclerosis of her main arteries of her colon is what finally did her in for at least a year before she died she had problems with her bowl movement, near the endf she could not hold her bowl movement.
I have a feeling that even if they tried to operate on her colon they would have had to cut a lot of it out for I believe some of her colon was already dying or dead and rotting in her body a few days before she died.
She would not have had no quality of life if she had to have most of her colon removed.
The day we got the bad news about a week before she died the doctor told us her body would not handle another round of dialysis.
