Hello all you kind people
Mum is a little brighter today, and was pleased when my husband took our 16 week old puppy to see her.

Her breathing is a little easier, but she is still on oxygen most of the time, she has lost her appetite again., and they are trying her with morphine patches now.
They keep mending things that arent broken!!!!

Thank you all once again for your prayers and thoughts

Ann

I feel as if I am caving in!

I cannot concentrate on my work and am feeling very low.

I have asked why they have changed mums meds and put her on morphine patches, when the tablets appeared to working well. Apparently there can be side effects to strong morpine taken in tablet form, one being renal failure and, mum was showing signs that her renal function was deteriorating, so they changed, but since then she has really so much pain and hasnt eaten anything soince Thursday, she also has her nausea back again, Oh my poor darling mum.

Please keep the prayers flowing she seems to need them more than ever now, and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart

Oh bless her, seems awful that she is back to square one again, I do hope the doctors can find a way to help her feel better without causing further problems for her. No wonder you are feeling low, it must be so upsetting to see her like that again, after she brightened up so well.
Sending a gentle hug for her and a big one for you too,

Ann i am so sorry. I hope that they make your mum as comfortable as possible. You must try and slow down or you will make yourself ill. Have some time for yourself in between visits. Thinking of you and your dear mum.

Bless you all thank you so much
Tonight there is no change, and no food being eaten by mum 5 days now

Bless her, surely it would be better to change her drugs again if she isn't feeling well enough to eat. I hope you can tempt her to eat something soon.

Hi all,
Sorry I havent updated you before.
I have not been on GR of late I am spending as much time with mum now as I can, she has deteriorated so much now. She had up to yesterday had no pain for some time, but that is at the expense of her lucidness. But yesterday she was in severe pain so they upped the morphine in her driver.She is sleeping about 20 hours a day, so I just sit with her when I can, as does my husband. We now know she will not be coming home and is ready to go to meet her maker, she has asked to see her minister. I asked the nurses if it was needed, and they said no, but it was what mum wanted and she would get comfort from seeing him.
Yesterday I had a very insentitive email from my sister in law, who said she hadnt bought mum a gift as she thought she wouldnt need it. What can I say...................
I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for all your prayers and kind words of comfort.
Brian i has been so concerned I am sorry I havent kept you all updated
Thanks once again
Ann

Ann..... I am so sorry to hear the latest news of your Mum.

I am holding her in my thoughts and hoping she will keep free of pain and have a peaceful passing.

I could comment on the insensitivity of your sister-in-law but I would be banned.

Thank you Ann for the up-date, I know that it is hard to keep everyone informed; my daughters and I took turns when Rita was in her last days. I send my thoughts and prayers to you and Mom.

Your mum is a wise lady Ann, she needs to be at peace now, I pray that she will have no more pain, but I am sure she will be comforted ,

The Lord bless her and keep her,

The Lord make his face to shine upon her,

and be gracious unto her,

The Lord turn his face to her,

And give her peace.........

Your dear Mum has fought her battle with dignity and now is ready ,as you say, to move to a place where there is no suffering and pain. I wish her a gentle passing and wish you the strength to cope. I am glad you have such a supportive hubby to help you through what is and will be a sad time. You have done your Mum proud and I know you will continue to help her at this time.
Your sister doesn't sound as caring as you or your Mum, but it takes all sorts....
I will be thinking of you and your Mum,

Lizxx
