My mum is now on end of life care & the syringe driver is in place. She is sleeping most of the time. She still has occasional bouts of sickness/bile coming up but she has no energy to cough or spit & she doesn’t seem to have the energy to talk.
We live quite close to the hospital so after being there for almost 5 hrs this afternoon, I have come home for a rest. I’m pretty emotionally drained to be honest & need a few hours off & then we will go back in a bit unless we get a phone call earlier than that.
I’m glad that my cousin G was able to visit my mum today. After a 25 yr estrangement ( which my mum caused) my mum recognised her & tried to smile which was lovely to see but also heart breaking at the same time. I’m trying to keep it together & be strong.
My well off cousin & her family, true to form are being in my view, disrespectful to me but that’s by the by and I will save that for another time. Her daughter bringing up bloody chair heights at the care home at a time like this! Just unreal but that’s how their minds work, probably a criticism of me xx
