Why "snowing"?

After the tv sets from long ago, when you’d get the snowy picture. After watching my mom die from renal cell carcinoma, her snowing was a relief. She told me 2 days before, she was ready to go and was tired of struggling to breathe. Her cancer had spread to her lungs. However, having someone go in for a bladder infection and go straight to the funeral home, isn’t normal. This shouldn’t be normal protocol and we should never allow them to tell us that it is.
