Only 4oz fluid in 60 hours...seemingly comfortably sedated. I have to believe this is painless...right?

seemingly comfortably sedated.
is your family member being given something for sedation or pain by the hospice nurse or have they trained y'all how and when to administer the meds?
If so, then I would think your relative is comfortable.
If not and your relative is in a near-coma like state, then still probs unaware of pain or suffering.
you can always evaluate their heart rate and work of breathing to determine if they're suffering and are unable to tell you.
I hope that helps, and I'm sorry y'all are going through this.
