I am sorry about your situation.
It is truly something you, yourself will have to decide.
If your grandma left certain wishes, even if it hurts, I would go with those wishes. That is what I would do if I were in your situation.
Take care....

wow that's a really hard decision but i would say you should go with life support because you have to take chances that's what life is about...I feel bad that your going through a really hard time..The decision is yours though try helping your great-grandmother or not trying at all...if i was in your postition i would go with life supports because if she still does die she will know that you tried to help her live...Hope you make a good and wise decision

you grandma should sign the paper making her own decision about life support etc.. to take the burden off the family. i do not understand why that has not been done. a living will.. get it done immediately

you should ask her what she would want if she is able to answer you every one should have a liveing will so people do not have to make this choice for them,I wish i could help with this question for you but is is not for any one to answer but grandma
