I just got a call from the nursing center. My mom has
now missed three dialysis treatments in a row (which I did know about),
and she missed a few before that as well. Basically, she is choosing to let
go now. The nurse wanted to let me know, and to ask if they could
contact hospice to come in for her. Of course, I said yes. The lack of
treatments is causing her to become increasingly confused, and she will
need the special care that hospice provides.
This is REALLY hard, and I'm not as ready to deal with it as I thought I was. If you are able and willing, I would greatly appreciate any prayers/energy/whatever that you can send to both her and me to help us get through this as painlessly (at least for her) as possible.
Thank you SO much for all the support you've given me. It has really helped a lot. And if I can return the favor in any way, please let me know.

You know you have my support and love and prayers. Sending you strength. Sending Mom peace and comfort. sigh ... so much love, dear friend.
ReplyDeleteYes, I do know. Thank you!
DeleteIts hard decision for anybody sometimes people are sometime ready to go, especially if they have been suffering from long term illnesses. From what I've seen death is never a nice experience but sometime it can the best as the person is released from their suffering.
ReplyDeleteI wish you best for this difficult transition, I hope you both find peace and comfort, I send my thoughts and strength to you, take care
Thank you so much.
DeleteOh Lucretia, I'm so sorry. ♥
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'd send you a heart back, but I don't know how to make them.
DeleteClose your eyes, breathe deeply, and feel all the people throughout the world who are sending you their love. I'm really sorry, Lucretia.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm trying, and it helps.
DeleteMy thoughts are you with your family Lucretia. <3
ReplyDeleteThank you, Meagan.
DeleteMy thoughts are with you. I am so sorry, Lucretia. *hugs* I am there for you if you need a friend
ReplyDeleteThank you, I really appreciate it. ::hugs::
DeleteLucretia, I am so sorry. My thoughts are with you and your mom.
ReplyDeleteI don't think we are ever ready.
So much love, Jane
Thank you. Nope, no matter how much we "prepare" for things like this, we're not really ready for it to happen.
DeleteI'm so sorry, Lucretia! I can honestly say that I have an inkling as to how you're feeling because my father is basically doing the same thing. May things work out in the best way possible for you, your mom, and the rest of your family!
ReplyDeleteThank you, and I'm so sorry about your father, but glad he is able to make his own choices. I hope things work out well for you and your family also.
DeleteThank you Lucretia!
