At least they were together. Genuinely the worst thought as a mother is my child experiencing something like that alone. Much better to be together in their final moments

and as a mother, also waking up everyday knowing they were dead. I'd rather go with them.

I remember a scene from Man in the High Castle (?) on Prime Video.

A woman was unknowingly waiting with her kids in a gas chamber designed as a sitting room. Her kids were resting near her and she realized they were too peacefully asleep and looked up and saw a vent. Knew her kids were gone.

She knew she was next.

But she didn't fight it. I wouldn't either. I wouldn't leave them.

I couldn't watch the show after that. I don't know if she died. Literally the last scene I remember.

Yep.  I wish I could finish it.  Evokes so much emotion I have to leave the room even after the TV is off.
