It is a waiting process, who knows how long your Mum has? Days, weeks? I know it is hard, the waiting, but it is great you are both there with your Mum. Be strong for you and your sister. Hugs.

If she's not afraid and she's not in pain, between hospice and the two of you children you're doing a great job. The waiting is still hard, though - so I wish there were clear answers to give you but there never are. Hugs.

There's no way anyone can say how long your mom has. Death is a process and it sounds like she's begun the process.
