I'm so sorry for your loss, Scott. She sounds like a very special person.
I think there are a million ways to feel inadequate at times like this. My father's care team at hospice did some things that upset me a lot, even though I overall appreciate their services for him. I felt helpless and guilty that I couldn't change more than I could change. I'm sorry that she didn't get the passing that she should have gotten. I'm sorry they weren't more respectful to you and your concerns. But she had so much time to know how much you loved her and cared for her. I hope you're able to hold on to those memories over time.
