This one is rather dark.
End of life.
Actively dying.
Nausea and black vomit.
Learning about things
I need to know
and wish i didn't.
There's no way to predict time.
No way to predict number of steps and depth of symptoms.
The only knowns are
Death will come
when it is ready.
And you don't get to know death
until it arrives.
Morbid thoughts
or confronting reality?
That is up to the patient and caregivers
and their current state of mind.
