Default I'm feeling so guilty...

As many of you know, my Mom has been fighting lung cancer since October. She lives with me during the week and stays with my Sis on weekends. I have watched her go from a vivacious, beautiful 83 year old to a shell of a woman. She can barely walk, she is in pain all the time. This past week, she can't eat..living on juices and pain meds. She is miserable! I catch myself praying that she will just go ahead and pass away in her sleep..I don't want her to linger in this condition any longer. I love my Mom dearly and it just breaks my heart to see her like this..but I also feel so bad when I have these thoughts of her just wanting this over with and for her to be out of pain. Anyone been through this and am I wrong to have these feelings?
