ok. so i sent a thread on here a couple of days ago about seeing my mom in the home and her not recognising me. i finally got up and dusted myself off yesterday, only to be forcefully pushed back into the dust-ridden angst that i had pulled myself out of.
i had a call about an hour ago off my nan, saying my mom had just been taken into intensive care because she had been in a fit all day since this morning. i actually felt faint when she told me. they have put her to sleep so her anxiety doesnt make the fits worse. there is a chance that she could lapse into a coma if they are not careful. im so scared. i have to go see her tomorrow and im torn. i dont know what to do, i dont know whether i want to see her with wires coming out of her, i dont want to see her so frail and fragile. im only 22, my mom is 44 and she is in the later stages of this most horrible disease. i hope i have the strength to see her tomorrow. im so glad i can come on here and just say what i feel.
words of wisdom and comfort? they would be welcome.
thanks
