Waiting for death

She doesn't want help
After a hard life , destroying her health.
She now waits to die 
Bedridden , and almost blind .

Stoic , facing the end
Almost alone , very few family and friends.
Reminiscence of a few funny stories
Heard them before , but they're never boring.

We will cry , after we leave
Shed tears as we now start to grieve.
We will never see her alive again
We just hope its the truth she's not in pain
- with medical assistance.
She could pass away in comfort at least ....
