Yup. My mother (petite, size 0) told me once "I'm a FIGHTER!" . The strength with which she said it surprised me, but her life characterized it and backed it up.
When she was in hospice the doctors gave her a few hours to maybe 12 hours to live. "But it's up to her", they said. I told them, "oh, then we're going to be here a few more days". The doctors looked sadly at me, since clearly I was delusional and didn't want to face the truth.
My mom lasted a full week longer. Other doctors came to see her because they heard about her and couldn't believe it.
Thank you. Once you get older... you realize how things work. There's nothing we can do to stop death - although we can delay it. My mother had a great life and made it to over 80 years old. It was sad to lose her, but not terrifying. You'll be ok when the inevitable happens, I am sure. Meanwhile spend the time you can with your parents.
