[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 736406, member: 1550"] Follow your heart. You have an enmeshed family thst always tells everyone what to do. Usually it is YOU who is chosen to help everyone and do the hard work. Let them fight. Be true to yourself. If you are the person your father trusted to make end of life decisions for him then he trusted you for a reason. Sounds like your sister is a nasty piece of work. Do you need her? Maybe she is jealous for some reason. If you are ultimately the one in charge, it is your heart that must act. Not anyone elses. Try to seperate from sitting with them and do what you think is right. All any of us can do in an ethical way is to honor our own best judgment. In the end, it makes no difference. He will die. But I believe our soul lives on in a higher realm and whatever you chose, I believe Dad will be so grateful for your love. If you want to honor his wishes, do so. He will likely be too drugged up to feel further pain. It was like this for my own father. (((Hugs))) [/QUOTE]
