I remember reading this article a few years back, and it left an impression enough that I could retell it (but couldn't find it). Which turned out to be helpful, during/after my mother's passing half year ago. Thanks for sharing it, I can now share it to my siblings. A silver lining that despite the cancer she could leave relatively peacefully. The article & some comments do make me wonder: my mother refused any medication, including any painkillers, for 6 weeks after terminal diagnosis. Only on her last day, when breathing got painful did she accept a fentanyl patch to be administered. She lost her consciousness a few hours later, and less than a day later her breath. I wonder if it was dosed for that (as some form of mercy)
