We had a talk with the doctor this evening. Mom has been off and on a ventilator for the last 2 1/2 months. She also has acute kidney failure. They will be moving her to a private room tomorrow or Thursday and the ventilator will be removed.
This was a VERY hard decision for us to make but she will have no quality of life if this continues and she would have to have a trachiotomy (sp?) and be on dialysis for the rest of her life.
Please pray for strength for all of us over the next few days, the doctor said she may last 15 minutes or a week. We will all stay with her.
Thanks for all the prayers and good thoughts, they mean a lot to us.
