Hospice came to see Mom yesterday. After talking to all of us and then going in to do a physical exam we were told that Mom has about 2 weeks.

She has went down hill so quickly that it is completely unbelieveable. Every day that I see her it more drastic than the day before.

She has not eaten now in 4 days. Her last food was a butter pecan sundae that my sister got her on Saturday. Dad says that she is not wanting fluids now. Hospice has now prescribed her liquid pain medication. They have to give that to her in droppers.

It was very emotional yesterday with my dad and sister as we sat and went through all of Mom insurance policies to see what she had. Calling the funeral home to see if she had pre-planned any type of service.

My Dad is just heart broken because this is his soul mate. Him and Mom have known each other since they were 8 years old and have been married for almost 41 years now.

Hospice ordered her a hospital bed and it was delivered yesterday. They said that we she could be more propped up and not laying so flat.

I went in and had a talk with my Mom before I left. I told her that whenever she got ready to do that it was ok that we would be ok that we would take care of each other. I told her that Grandpa and my Aunt were waiting for her. I asked her if she heard me and she said yes. I told her that we were not going to be mad because we loved her. She laid her hand on my cheek and said she loved me too. She smiled a little and then closed her eyes and went back to sleep.

As I write this I cry. Not only for the loss that I know is coming but also because I rejoice in the fact she is aware that she is going to a better place of no more pain or sickness.

My tears are endless. My heart is breaking. No one can replace my Mom but I will also know that she will always be with me.View Thread
