Update
The last few days have been spent sitting in a hospital room and talking to doctors. Mom seems to recognize I'm here but I don't know if she understands anything beyond that. The family, with the advice of the doctors, has decided to move Mom to pallative care once my Aunt Beth gets here from San Diego. This means that on Weds. She'll be removed from the ventilator. After that, it could be a few hours or a few days..but in all liklihood it won't be very long.
