Hi. I'm sorry if this has been asked a lot before. My mom is in the late stages of Alzheimer's and for the last 3-4 weeks has only been having 1-2 sips of fluid and a couple of teaspoons of jelly a day (before this period she was having more but not large amounts, she also has problems swallowing). Last Tuesday the doctor was called to her care home as she couldn't get out of bed. The doctor officially put my mom on an end of life care plan and prescribed anticipatory drugs. Although she wouldn't say how long my mom has left told us to prepare ourselves. This last week has been heart breaking but yesterday and today my mom seems to have started eating and drinking again, not massive amounts but certainly a lot more than recently. Is this common? We don't know what to think now. Thank you.
