This is one of the reasons I find it hard to talk to my mother. She is beholden to grief about her father and is doing everything to prolong the life of my grandmother even though she can't walk, needs help eating, and constantly falls asleep. On top of that she hardly knows who is around her. it's sad.

Watching how my parents have dealt with my aging parents really puts pause on me and has me thinking about creating a living Will to make my own wishes very clear.
