What do you do when the person you love and care about
decides that they no longer have the will to live? Who every time I turn around she says she wants to die and join gpa? That she wishes the doctor would just put her to sleep? I try to be there for gma as much as I can but she is in a deep state of depression. Would medicines be wise at this point? She has early AZ. I just don't know what to do for her that it's tearing me up inside.

oh red ,i know how you feel.The best way is to get them a good doc who listens and get them medicated ,be sure to get them medicated and make sure she takes it and introspect the close behavior.
good luck !!!

I would get her to the doc Red
dad always said this after Mom passed and I know he was waiting to be with her
YES they do go into a deep depression
I have had ppl in homes that seem to pass from a broken heart after losing life partner
Very dang sad
Medication just might be the option she needs right now
Let me know how it goes plz
Hugg to you and yours
