After 3 extensive stays in the hospital they wanted to intubate her for the 4th time. She said no and I signed the DNR papers. Got hospice involved and got her home and she lasted about 26 hours.I fixed her breakfast that morning before going back on the respirator. for about 6 hours. She woke back up and wanted her morphine, her time was near and she knew it.She passed at home in her bed with her family at hand.She died happy.
