[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 334853, member: 1963"] It might be 8 times stronger. I quoted something I'd read fairly recently that. If wrong, I apologize. I agree a hundred percent with letting her be comfortable and live out the time she has left. husband refused further treatment beyond pain medications a few days before he died. Not only did I bring in a bottle of his favorite single-malt Scotch, but the staff looked in the other direction when I did so. It was a simple pleasure for him. He would drink a shot or two of the whiskey some evenings...and sip it like it was a fine cognac. No one saw any reason for him to not have that small pleasure when we and he knew he was actively dieing. Now my mother is 75, has the diseases of aging and spinal stenosis on top of the usual arthritis. When she shattered her wrist last year, she busted her tail rehabbing from the injury. She belongs to a seniors' health club, and I can assure you her body's going to wear out before her soul does. It's a very diiferent thing that I feel is entirely an individual decision, assuming the individual is lucid. husband just wore out. He was exhausted and couldn't do it anymore. [/QUOTE]
