Bad News, she eventually lost the fight on Monday night, 3 weeks nearly after first contracting pneumonia.
The family are in bits as you'd expect, my brother in law said "It's like the end of an era" because she was ever present in all our lives for so long.
Still she got her wish to die at home with her family and carers rather than in hospital, it's what she told them in hospital that's what she wanted and she'd had enough treatment and wanted to go.
The health service in the UK gets a great deal of stick at times, but i can only praise everyone,nurses,doctors and carers for all rallying round to ensure my mother in Law got what she requested a quiet dignified death in her own home.
