Dearesr gismo,
You and your family have my deepest thought & prayers.
May I ask how old she is? Does she practice a particular faith?

I understand you not knowing what to say, it is something that is not taught/
talked about in the open. So how would you know. The best thing you can do
is listen, let her talk, ask her how she feels and let her express what she wants
or needs during this time. If she is'nt one that talks thats okay too. You could
take this time to tell her how you love her and tell her she is not alone. To keep
her free from physical pain. Honnor her by telling how much joy she has spread upon the earth. You have a husband because she was a mother, if you have children, she was a grandmother. These are things to celebrate.
If there was/is any discord this would be the time to forgive any harshness.
Some people die suddenly or alone and don't get this time.
We are all humans born of light/energy and in the end this is what we return to.
Gismo, all you can do is hold her hand, caress her head, keep her calm and free of pain and tell her there is nothing to fear, she is not alone.
If she does have a particular faith encourage it, whatever brings her peace.
With all due respect I hope I did'nt say anything to offend you.
Prayers and Hugs,
Happiedasiy

Sending the most positive vibes I can. Say to her all will be well in time. That suffering will pass and peace does come. Quite possibly she already knows. Holding hands with all.

Yes. What matters is that you did post it. And if healing for her can only be found on the other side of death, then here's my prayer that she find it--even if it must be found there.

i feel so humble in reading all of your replies, thankyou all very much for your support and prayers..... my mother in law was not so good over xmas, she got taken into hospital with dehydration due to a water infection so no xmas dinner she was nill by mouth and still she smiles .....
the hospice has given her a wheel chair so she can at least get some fresh air when she feels up to it
thankyou once again for all your kind words x
