I cared for my wonderful mum who had vascular dementia for the past four years we moved in together in a new home in a different area with my husband so I could be her full time carer.
My mum died this Monday morning I don't know what to do I miss her so much she was my whole world night and day and I don't know what I am going to do without her
She died here at home after a terrible week she had been rushed to hospital vomiting black blood on the Sunday and they discharged her on the Wednesday even though I asked them to keep her in as she wasn't eating or drinking just retching all the time but was told by the ward sister it wasn't a reason to keep her there.mum never ate and hardly drank all week just kept trying to be sick even with small sips of water and got worse each day and finally on Monday we put her to bed laid with her until 2 am then left her to sleep and my brother found her on the bathroom floor at 6 am
No one would help me I kept telling them how distressed she was
I am heartbroken and can't go near her room I just want to run away I feel like I let her down so much and she died on her own.
