Thanks to everyone. Our mother passed away this afternoon around 2 pm. We were with her straight thru 40 hours. She couldn't speak but it was clear she could hear us.
The people at hospice were wonderful.
Today around 1 pm (after our mom struggling to die and let go now for over 24 hours)the hospice team felt that our mom didn't want to die in our presence and was waiting for us all to say our goodbyes to her. so we did and left the hospice center. we were not even back in my sisters house (5 minutes away) for 10 minutes when they called to say she passed away peacefully.
I thank everyone for their assistance and support.
I got the time to thank my mom for all she did to save my life and make it what it is today. I got to tell her I loved her which is a difficult thing for me. I got to be there and share time with her and stories and just hold her hand.
I know the next few days will be hard but as a family we will get by.
