Over the last year my nana has been in and out of hospital she is in a nurseing home but this time she has a blood clot in her leg and they say it's not responding to treatment and it's going to her lungs she is not expected to leave the hospital . She can not feed her self she cant walk she cant remember what happened 2mins ago or even 60 years ago she has lost all of her memory The other day when i visited her she was bright and happy and she is glowing she looks younger and she talked for 1 1/2 hours to me not much sence but some memory and she laughed the whole time i cant remeber how long ago she laughed it was great but i have heard that people go like that before they pass on and i'm scared cos this is her 3rd day happy. Any one with advice my dad wants to fly over to see her but i dont know what info to give him

My suggestion is to please let your father see ur nana before she passes to some other world. U r saying that she is happy, but it wont lead for some weeks, remember it is just for some days or hours, before that u r father must see her else he miss her that make him worry.
Try to inform your dad to come as early as possible.

I am so sorry the hear that your Nana is sick. I would suggest he try and see her. If he didn't try he would miss that closure after she is gone. Take heart in knowing that she is at peace with going "home". If you need to talk, we are here for you.
