Nearing The End

Subject: nearing the end
Date: 04/08/2008
I have found this site to be so comforting and supportive to me while going through stomach cancer with my mom.  She was dx with stage IV the end of January and put on Hospice 3 days later - no chemo/radiation/stomach removal surgery.  She was given a J-tube.  In tow months she has had the J-tube plug up so badly that it had to be replaced.  This morning she has decided to dicontinue the J-tube.  She is tired and very weak.  The doctor is saying 1-2 weeks.  Does anyone have experience with this time-line.  He is saying that because she was nurished and hydrated the end could take some time.  What is going to happen to her will she be in pain or just go to sleep?  I miss her already.  Thanks all for your input.
