Pamela Allegretto Thank you for sharing this heartfelt story. Your mother was fortunate to have left this world with her dignity intact. She was fortunate to have such a loving family who didn't attempt to impede her wishes.

Thanks so much for your message, Paula.


Peggyzbooksnmusic Elinor; So glad that you shared this with your Goodread friends. Hopefully in the future humans will understand that just surviving is not living if you have no control over your body and are unable to enjoy your life. A difficult decision to make and as difficult as it must have been for you and your family at least you have the peace of mind that your mother's wishes were fulfilled.
