@tnt69, denial is a part of this journey you, your sister, your family didn't choose to take. I think you might appreciate this article about how hope and denial can work together and how hope can be reframed.

Hospice care includes a team of people from doctors to nurses to social workers to chaplains that work with anyone in the family that can use comfort and care. I want you to know that you can call your local hospice and ask about services available for you, to help you accept and to learn what you can expect.
Please know, @tnt69, that you never need to apologize for, "I just realized that I am just going on and on." You are in a stressful situation, and we all have been there. Continue to post and let us encourage you as best we can.
