Unhappy an update on my uncle...

i just talked to my mom a little bit ago & found out the hospice nurse/dr. feel that my uncle has 72 hours or less to live. & he lost his eye sight last wk...

my aunt thinks that my mom is mad at her. my mom tried to make an effort a while back to help them out & they told her that they wanted her to leave them alone.... anyway ~ my aunt said that when he dies, she wants to go w/ him. i have had very little contact w/ them over the years, so i have no idea how serious she is about carrying out her wish....

my parents went to see my aunt & uncle last night. they said that my uncle doesnt even know he's in this world. he's unconscious. the drs have my aunt pretty sedated too.... from the sounds of it, it could be ANY TIME now that he passes away.

my dad & my sister are both trying to guilt me into going to see him, but i'm leaning towards NOT going this morning. my aunt will probably call my mom w/ another update after lunch.
