My basic function is to advocate for more morphine etc. every time the nurses come in.

Hang in there. Death is not always an adversary. Sometimes it's a friend.

My mom did the same thing. A full week of no water/food. it's a very unsettling thing for families to endure/sit through.

I cannot like this enough. good for you. keep your relative comfortable. they have plenty of meds and can easily get more.
