Oh No :( ..\nI would definetly call at least her doctor, and see what  he suggests. If he knows her wishes are to die at home,and not in a Hospital, at least he may be able to give you some suggestions. That is just terrible, and I am very sorry for you and your family. She must be a very special woman to have lived so long! My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I believe that my Mom (58) is still alive for some very great things in our lives to come on earth , that we need her help here still - and on a sad note , I believe my Dad left this earth (at 49) 12 years ago so that he could be forever looking over us as a guide . You see here on earth he was just suffering in life . I can't prove it to anyone but I sure believe . Everywhere I go , every day I breathe I feel my Dad .

this is a subject that i know all to well. I watched my grandmother go from a vibrant woman at the age of 71 to a woman with an IQ of a child at 73. It attacks the functions of the brain which controls all functions of the body. It slowly diterates the cells in the brain starting with memory first. Then it attacks motor functions like swallowing, chewing, moving the hands and feet, talking too. Then it goes into full scale where the body starts to chut down that's where they are in a vegetative state and bedridden. Then ultimately death. My grandmother started showing signs of it in the form of forgetfulness, then she started to go back in time and forget who or what she was talking about. It was the hardest thing when she would call me on the phone crying her eyes out because she was sitting in the bath tub and forgot how to turn off the water and it was running over all over the floor and into the rest of the house. To the families its expecially tough because you are watching someone you love dearly fall to pieces literally is front of your eyes. When they get to the point that they start to wonder off or get up during the midnight hour and walk off and get in the car or take a walk trying to go back home to when they were children it's scary and hard because it takes time out of your life. For me I had to put my life on hold almost and I was pregnant at the time, but I loved my granny so much it didn't matter to me. You have to understand that they are someone different now and that it's not pf their control they act the way they do. She also cussed us out, accused us of stealing or poisoning her. She hid things from us because she got to the point she didn't recognize us or trust us anymore. She would argue with us because she would forget things and she got frustrated easily. It's hard to take care of someone like that. Because they are unpredictiable. then when they get to a certain way they might only trust you to take care of them. Which for me was the case. it's a disease that changes not only the person suffering from it, it changes the person or people taking care of that person. After my granny died from this disease, I didn't want to become a nurse anymore. I couldn't take it again to see someone else go through that. It turn my world apart because she wasn't granny anymore. I had to take care of her like a 1 year old. Changing her diapers and cleaning up after her and feeding her. You go through so much. But I wouldn't have had it no other way. She raised me and took care of me, the least i could have done was do the same and for that i am grateful for because i was there the whole time. I loved her that much and will always.

Well intil recently I was taking  care of my elderly grandpa while raising a child by myself working two jobs AND going to school.  I just graduated and am sooo glad that I was able to make it.  Taking care of my elderly grandpa has been trying at times mainly because he is stubborn and old and moody and when things start hurting him he gets grumpy and lashes out at me and my daughter.  My grandpa is still mobile and can get out sometimes but mostly I do almost all of the shopping and cooking and cleaning and other house work for him.  We also live out in the country so I do a lot of yard work like mowing etc.  But I would not change it for the world when I was nine I lost both of my parents and it was my grandpa who raised me and although I could be anywhere else but here I will never leave his side.  Hope this helps and feel free to e-mail me or IM me anytime.

i think we can only stay alive til we're 100.  my friend said that her grandma is 106 but i think she's lying. but if you stay healthy u can live up to 102 probably.  the meaning of life is to enjoy and get loved.

Not necessarily.\nSometimes you might get a response for an older person who will sound something more like your parents or grandparents.  I and many others are more interested in giving askers answers that might help rather than just spitting out what your peers are going to tell you.\nJust be careful what you ask.  You might get back some surprising answers.

It is a natural as birth, I my father died two years ago. He had a maintainable decease Ulcerative colitis. But at 72 he was tired of living. He felt he had done what he was put here to do and there was no talking him out of it. They put him on painkillers and sent him home. He died six months later. It's tempting to say "lost", but this isn't the case in reality. Those who pass over are ever present in our lives. At times you will even hear them speak when you are having troubles. Right now your mother in law is in a safe place and at peace. There is no time, no pain, there is no fear or suffering. Better by far than the place where we live today. If you look ahead I know it sounds far fetched, but you will see her again soon. Time isn't what you think it is.. So waste non of it. 20 years from now this will make even more sense.

Mistaken identity on the part of the officers or the 92 year old granny?  You have to give a little more information than that in order to get some kind of intellgent response to your need for justifying your dissatisfaction with something you were not a part of.  Tell me more and I'll give you some type of answer although I would insist you find out more information than just what you are getting from a news story before you make decisions about anyones actions....Police or otherwise!

it was the time that my grandmother who i love so mush had just died from one month only...i had dream..not usual dream ..it looked like real life...i sow my died grandmother and she told me things about her brother ..his name,and something like he was not OK or she want us to ask about him ...\nwhen i waked up..i went to my mother and asked her if my grandmother has a brother and his name Iabrahim like she told me in the dream...i never know that my grandmother has a brothers,,,my mother told me yes she had...i told her about my dream..after 2 days from my dream the brother (Iabrahim)of my grandmother died...there is no scincetific explanation for that ...i think God sometimes want to show us signs that we are not just physical creatures...but we have souls too who are gifts from God...

My grandmother ... she is dead and gone now, but she has not been replaced as the most respected. She was a caring loving, strong woman, raised 7 children and a couple of her grandchildren ... if she doesn't deserve respect no one does.

Old granny just cannot understand. I guess it is the generation gap? Naw,

I totally understand what you are asking.  My grandfather spent nearly 10 years caring and loving my grandmother who had Alzheimers.  She passed away, and he got remarried less than 1 year later.  I think you need to look at her from her side.  She obviously loved your father dearly, but when you care for someone that long and there really isn't a whole lot going on between them because the other is sick, it's almost as if the relationship was over a long time before they actually passed away.  It sounds bad, and I don't mean it to, but give your mom the benefit of the doubt.  I'm sure she isn't trying to disrespect anyone.  Good luck.
