 Good luck - hopefully flowers won't be necessary.

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

It might sound really tough but please think about it.
If he still has a good % of getting good if he survives this, then fight with everything you and he have. But if not... be prepared to just say good bye and let him go.
And yes, I know what it is... we confronted such a decission when my mother got in a similar situation. She had already suffered enough the last couple of years and the perspective of being still bad and connected 100% to a machine delaying the inevitable... that was something she had already told several times she wouldn't like it, so when the time came, we respected her whishes and asked the doctors to only assist her to be in peace... she was gone in less than 30 hours.
The worst thing for me was I didn't manage to say good bye personally because my flight arrived 6 hours too late.
It was hard, but I still think we did the correct thing.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Absolutely.
Luckily, the entire family is sober enough to know death is all part of the game of life.
It's sad, but some lives pass and others go on.
Especially when passed life was almost 88 years old and oldest in the family.
Just really sad for grandma, hopefully she can find some peace in it too.
I think we're all more worried for grandma being left behind alone than grandpa passing

If it has to happen, make it quick. The hard death is a soft one, on a soft pillow, taking years. A swift one is better. (From a poem, yes)

You said "I love you" before?
If my time comes, even dying alone; no regrets. I said what I needed, if time up, we accept.
..and "even this shall pass away". (Yes, another reference to a poem).
