I hadn't logged in the past few days, but I have been keeping up reading about you all!

I wanted to take a moment to send my greetings to everyone.

JSM: Loved the pictures. Safe trip home! Can't wait for you and Josef to be reunited.

Was just taking a little break from posting all the Valentine avatars. I am into hour 4 so far! And just about ½ way through.

Hope you all are having a wonderful start to the new year!

Happy New Year Monkeys!  I am suffering from a hangover this fine New Years Day..... ugh.  We had too much fun last night.  Hubby took me out dancing and we celebrated a little too much. LOL 

I wish the best to all my fellow monkeys for the coming year!

Glad you made it home safe.  Did you get to go to mass? Did you eat at any of those neat places?

Happy New Year.

Yeah! I'm so glad you're home, and I'm so glad you went! I bet it meant the world to your mom. What was your favorite part of the trip?

So, monks, I have a ethical/moral question. If you knew that someone was going to die within the next 12-24 hours (verified by hospice nurses) would you make sure that someone was not left alone? Or would you just let nature take its course? I believe the patient was non-responsive for most of his last day.....

(And ain't that a cheery question to wake up to????) Sorry, this has been bugging me since yesterday, and I need other's input. Not so much to validate my position, but to hear other's opinions. Perhaps change my mind....

I really don't think anyone should have to die alone..... just my opinion.

Good Morning Monkeys!


Tevye.....in my opinion, I would be there with them. Nothing is sadder to me than for someone to die alone. Sometimes they will hold on waiting for everyone to say their goodbyes and sometimes they will wait for everyone to leave before they let go. I would imagine it would be a comfort to have your loved ones there with you in your last moments. JMO.

I am off to Sam's Club to pick up some things .Catch you Monkeys later. Have a great Day!

I would want to be with the loved one. For many reasons. You started you thought they were non-responsive for most of the day. From my personal experience and my opinion although they might seem that way, I believe they know you are there. It's a hard call and some have a difficult time being there when they pass. I would pray when my time comes my family is with me.
Prayers to you. an angelic monkey

Thanks, darla, banana and GreenEyes. You've all confirmed what I thought. The person in question was my BIL, married to Bad Sister. She couldn't be bothered to stay with him, and it hurts my heart to know he was alone. I couldn't be there (grandkid duty), and it wasn't my PLACE to be there...but I think it was hers. Now I'm just gonna have to get over it, and save this discussion for the next time I spend the night at her house and she's all boozed up and she and I can tell the TRUTH to each other. I think (hope) she's feeling guilty, and so for that, I won't fault her. But if she's full of excuses why she should have been out drinking with her friends...well, that I'm gonna have a hard time with.

I have been with folks when they've died. I know that right up until the last second, they're still "there", and I know hearing and touch are the last sensations to go. I hate for people to be scared...I hope he wasn't scared.

Good Morning Tevye.
IMO,no one should die alone.
When I was doing my clinical rotations years ago,I saw a little woman who was alone when she died.I will never forget that.
