Hi, I'm new to the forum, I joined because I wasn't sure what to do and needed some advice.
My 69 year old mam has incurable pancreatic cancer thats spread to her stomach, she was diagnosed about 8 weeks ago. She's had 2 rounds of chemo but missed the last week because she has a water infection, shes had temperature on and off for over a week and for the last fortnight had stopped eating , increased the morphine because if having more pain and had been in bed mostly. She's on antibiotics now but they have made her sick and she has deteriorated in the last 2 weeks. We've got numbers to phone but she won't let us, she argues and gets upset. Think she might not want to go into hospital but need some advice because she'll go mad and be upset if we go behind her back and phone nurses ourselves, any advice on how to deal with this will be appreciated.
