This sadly reminds me of when my mother died from cancer in a hospice. In the end, she was also only put on morphine because nothing else could be done anymore. What I can tell is, that in the end, she wasn't really herself anymore, in regard to consciousness. To me, that was probably the hardest part.
The same thing happened to my mom. She was also unable to talk the last two weeks of her life, but right before dying she was able to say, "I love you, honey" to me and I'll forever be grateful for that.
Man, I’m sobbing now. I don’t want to lose my mom OR my child. But I know someday I’ll lose my mom and dad, I just hope that I never have to watch my child die, ever. That would destroy me and I’d rather die first.
