The end is near for my poor mum

[BrianSausage]

Well things have progressed so much in the last week.
Mum has been in a coma like state for 8 days now. No fluid for 6 days and no food for 10 days.
We were called in by the home on Friday as mum’s breathing had changed and they thought the end was near.
It’s now Sunday, and I’ve only left her to go home and sleep. Other than that my brother and I have been at her side.
Mum has very heavy breathing and a gurling in her throat.

It’s so awful sitting here watching her struggle for breath, but she does not seem to be giving up.
My poor mum. What an awful end to her life.

What a very sad time for you. I remember going through this with my Dad and not daring to leave his side as I wanted to be there for him. Wishing you strength and peace for your Mum xx

Thank you for all your kind messages.
I didn’t think the grief would hit me the way it has. I’m devastated.
I know my beautiful mum is at peace now, free of this awful disease, and I am sure this will bring me comfort in the months to come.
It’s just so raw at the moment x
