You are in our thoughts x
(((((((((((❤️))))))))))My mum was sleeping peacefully but then awoke to horrendous coughing which was clearly hurting her. I was thinking that any minute, she will just peg out.
She wanted me to hold her hand, bless her & then she told me she was scared.
Am completely broken by this. I asked the nurse for more pain relief & morphine should help but they have to mix the meds & this takes time.
Then as my mum was so scared, I asked if we could call the Polish priest in again & he is coming shortly. She wanted him to come too.
Thinking of you xx
It’s not nice seeing them scared or in distress especially when we can’t do much if anything to ease it. I hope she settles soon and is more peaceful.
The alcohol might have to wait but I would add chocolate to your next tea order.
You poor lass - big hug. Try to stay strong for as long as she needs you, and remember there are people out here thinking of you x
Thank you. I’m trying to stay strong for her. I’m taking quite a lot of Rescue Remedy which does help. I am now at home but I feel very anxious about my mum & I can’t relax properly even though that is what I have come home to do. We will go back after we have had some dinner. My fiancé is cooking something. My head is shot to pieces & I can’t really concentrate on anything. X
Totally understand, have been through the same. Although losing mom is awful, I know she is at rest now or possibly nagging dad. Hope your mom is at peace soon xx
That's exactly what we were saying 2 days ago, she was fighting so hard, and before we visited last night it was the same according to the staff on the ward, and a few hours later she was gone. Nurse said that happens close to the end sometimes. Like you, I had no experience of it either. Wishing you and your mom peace xThank you @Whitey2000 i’m so sorry about your mum as I said on your thread. I just don’t understand why my mum is fighting so hard. I thought the syringe driver would help her drift into unconsciousness but it hasn’t as yet. I have no experience of this & I would never want to repeat it xx
