M5, I want to go quickly too. Unlike Sarv, I don't care if my hair is done!

I really wish the same for my mother rather than the long, drawn-out thing she's doing. I think she was fortunate that her last husband died almost instantly. They didn't do an autopsy but it sounded like he blew out his aorta, and died slumped over the seat in the van he was loading.

With my father, we (family) had to agree to turn off the ventilator. A very long and drawn-out process since he was in a military hospital. He lasted about 2 minutes after the machine was turned off.

M5. also sorry to hear the circumstances about your DIL's aunt. I have some experience with alcholics in my family and it's never easy.

Either my internet service or the modem in my computer is acting up. If you don't hear from me for a couple of days, please do not worry. Also, I plan to drive to Boone to see mother Wed and Thurs. so I'll be offline then.

On a brighter note: Julie, Happy Birthday!!
