Hi all
Not sure where this post is surposed to go but i sit on here and i understand what loved ones are saying about the final journey of a loved one. Yes i have read in some cases it is peaceful, are we not surposed to talk about the outher side of it. I feel on here you can not say how you realy feel as you have to be sensitive to outhers as they might not experience what you went through therfor you have to keep quiet. Well iam sure iam not alone in what us as a family went through those final last few days, i can say it was not peaceful, how can it be to see a loved one no longer eating, no longer haveing fluids, no longer speaking,no longer looking anywhere watching them breath slower and slower, hands and feet turning purple befor your very eyes that was the reality for us as a family. And while posts will be posted on here about how peaceful it was at the end are we not surposed to talk about what happens in some cases. Yes the final hours were not distressing as i thought it would be someone dying but leading up to it was. I could carry on to what i witnessed at the end of my mums life but i would not want to upset those who still have a loved one as i have said you might not go through what we did as a family. I just feel that there may be outhers on here who want to express how they are realy thinking but we feel we have to hold back for fear on not upsetting them that are going through it.
