Mums still losing lots of weight- it’s feels like each week there’s quite a drop. The carers in her NH haven’t excitedly told me about anything she’s eaten which they usually do if it’s anything significant. I take her fruit in which she starts to eat but ends up with it all stored in her cheeks. She hasn’t spoken in weeks just makes noises but does still sort of smile.. but this is getting less and less. We had a cancer diagnosis confirmed for her recently and naturally are looking at Pallative care. I had a good conversation with the care home manager who said it’s quite likely her body is shutting down as she’s losing so much weight and she is getting new sores. The care home manager did say you can’t time these things as i well know but she did ask that I let them know end of life plan in terms of things like music and if there’s anything specific she would like in the room and to start looking at funeral directors so I could let them know.. which makes things feel closer. As sad as it is when we visit as she’s just so frail I’m enjoying spending time with her, putting moisturiser on her and brushing her hair and playing her favourite songs.
