SD, Too many losses, too much suffering, too much to deal with!
Love to you, Nelle and John...if you have to lose your mother, may she go in peace and painlessly, whenever that has to be. |

Doctors have thrown in the towel her kidneys are giving out so they can't relieve the lungs or the heart she's getting out and we will probably set her up with hospis |

Lennie, all I can say is the time you have left with her is precious.
Use it wisely.
Hospice is a ... wonderful thing. It helps make it all bearable, for everyone. |

SD, I echo ThunderDawg. Hospice came in for the last 3 weeks of Ed's Dad's life and it was a great source of comfort. I didn't read the booklet they gave me before he died and was sorry later because I would have understood the process much better. As one is dying, they are so preoccupied with that fact in their head, it doesn't leave a lot of psychic energy for them to respond with the caring and words they may have always done before. With my husband, the cancer had also gone to his head, which made his conversations puzzling and rather challenging to understand at the end. |

Wrong thread...
SD...let her know that we're all thinking of her and her family. May her memories bring her warmth and comfort in these final days... |

My thoughts and prayers are with you and mom. |

We had a meeting last night with the hospice people and set that up. Mom was in good spirits made a remark about me being short and fat the humility of it all in good humor and classic mom. She was in good form. |

She sounds like a wonderful women who is choosing to take things in stride and with humor rather than whine her way out. Her son raised a good mother. ; ) |
