Thanks everyone for the good wishesI'm sorry @VitaMan.. 'fraid it is going to happen to us all.
Stepdad got the same diagnosis and lasted over the year..but didn't make 2.
Now would be the time to have a full and frank discussion...if you can...about what she wants to happen.
It's all about her now. Bless her..![]()
My mother, sister and I have been having this conversation for many years, since her kidneys started failing. Mom has "do not resuscitate" instructions.
Of course we accept this. As a social service worker I have seen the effects of relatives' prolonged suffering on clients and the burden on health care.
The day will come and I won't like it. In the meantime it is about QUALITY of life.
