I hope it's because she has the will to live, why isn't she getting nourishment?

david16, welcome to the boards...
I am so sorry you are going through this with your mother. I also wonder why nourishment has been suspended for so long? My understanding is that we can only manage for 10 days or so, without nourishment.
