Hello am new on here just joined , am so confused , I need help ! My father inlaw is at the nursing home , he has dimentia , last stages of dimentia . So he is at end of of life care . He hasn't eaten or drunk any fluids for 5 days now , he doesn't talk or move at all , he sleeps all the time , he doesn't waken up for the past 4 days ,we have tried to wake him up but no response , please help does anyone know how long can someone survive without food or drink and just sleeps all the time ? It's really a sad time for us as we don't know how long he can survive like this and it's so devastating to be waiting for the loved one to leave us for good . It's so terrifying ! I feel so terrible for my mother inlaw as she is by his bed side all the time as we are all scared that he will leave us any time .
Please help has anyone been in this position before !? How long can we be in this situation for ?! Your help will greatly be appreciated . :-(
