Starving to death

End of life is not pretty. My mom has dementia and her brain no longer communicates properly with the rest of her body. It's affected her ability to swallow. She is holding and pocketing what's supposed to sustain her. She's starving to death. Barely able to eat or drink. It's sad to see her deteriorate. Over the last 6 months she's lost 40 pounds. She's dying.
