So I am in NY. Waiting for my Grandma to die. She has had no food or water in 10 days and is still chugging along on a morphine drip. SHe has a living will that states that she is not to be kept alive by artificial means. The morphine is to ease the passing and pain from dehydration and hunger. She is 98. It is ok to go now.

My normal resolve for this stuff is stretched. I do not think I have been this drained and exhausted emotionally. I asked today if they could just plug in food and water i mean really. I am not self centered and there have been some scares before but this is getting to a point of being kind of fucked up.

I am not an expert on living wills, and where the line is drawn. But my family, mainly my aunts are planning a memorial service when she is not even dead yet. That confuses the hell out of me.

Kind of fucked up on my planet.........
