I can definately relate to you, and feel the same way. Mom is 82, blind, has alcoholism and dementia. since my dad passed 3 years ago, she only wants to die and it is so hard to watch her suffer (and slowly kill herself) with no hope of any future. My mother has a dnr- comfort care only, but other than the alcohol inducedbleeding that is slowly killing her, she is as healthy as a horse (physically). So we watch her suffer every day and I know how much it hurts, and also know how guilty it can feel to wish it were over. I wish I had better words for you, but I can send my understanding and a big hug!
