Hi
I have posted before about my mum, she was given weeks to live on the 3rd march. after only being diagnosed on the 20th February. She is at home with my dad.
She has been pretty much bed bound since coming home and always had oxygen tubes in. The only time she leaves the bed is to use the commode which she takes about 30 mins to recover from each time.
I have seen a real detoration in the last week. Although she is swollen on the tummy, legs and arms she seems very withdrawn if that make sense. She seems very pale too. She keeps getting bouts of high temperatures. Feeling sick, constipation, dirahea. She has said she doesn't feel it come sometimes.
She now sleeps most of the day. Maybe Alert for an hour or two a day. She eats very little maybe a little toast or a yoghurt .
She sometimes seems confused and teary.
Although she has many end of life symptoms.
I still don't know how close we are?
I don't want to lose my mum but I don't know how long she can go on as she is.
I don't really know what Im posting for. I just need to talk it out my system.
How long did the end go on for u?
I am so tired and drained and can not do anything but overthink. I am still working full time with 3 kids and visiting mum as much as I can to help my dad. But I feel like I'm not doing any of those things very well.
Mum passed away this morning (7/04/2021) at 3.47 am.
The last 24 hours have been horrendous
