I so feel your pain I watched my mom deteriorate and die on a ventilator as well. The worst thing I have ever gone through. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. I was an only child and went through the whole ordeal alone. What is left of my family has not been much of a support. I have never suffered a more profound loss than the loss of my mom. I feel like I am on the verge of a mental breakdown.

@blueboy68, losing your mom is a loss like no other. I know @debra54 understands first-hand seeing a loved one on a ventilator. It takes time for the memory of the last days to become surrounded by the fuller memories of everything your mom was and remains in your memories.
Have you connected with a therapist or bereavement support group to help you through this especially challenging time? Do you have a special happy memory of your mom that you'd like to share?
