still with us
Hanging in there
Still with us means alive, especially when survival seemed uncertain.
It's often used of someone elderly, ill, or in danger: Is your grandmother still with us?
The phrase can also mean present and paying attention, checking whether someone has drifted off: Are you still with us, or did I lose you?
