She is being released from the hospital as she wishes to spend her last days and months at home. Ella has her preferences for care, though she is now so weak that she has given up in many ways.
The family members are each experiencing their own fears and are grieving as they face the loss that will occur when Ella's life ends. Ella feels stressed by the discord and discomfort of family members.
