How long does it take?

I don't know if this seems out of line to ask here, but I have no where else to ask.

My mom is not good. She is still having fever that the antibiotic has not broken. They have stopped giving her food, but are still hydrating her. She is on morphine and a fentanyl patch.

She did not recognize me or my father today. When she opens her eyes you can tell she does not know where she is. When my dad touched her hand today she jumped and said "Where are you taking me".

My wish is that she would pass soon. The doctor said it could take weeks. I don't know if I can take it that long. Is this true? Will it take weeks of suffering for her to pass away?
