I just returned home from making arrangements for my mother to enter hospice.
She has been hospitalized for a methane resistant staph infection and overnight she developed pneumonia.
She has basically starved to death. She is cancer free but she is so malnourished that she has no reserves to fight the pneumonia.
Her physicians told me to call my siblings to come if they want to see her alive. If she lives through the night she will be transported by ambulance tomorrow morning to hospice. They do not expect her to survive the pneumonia.
I am the eldest of 5 children and all of the responsibility seems to be mine. It is a terrible burden to bear with a broken heart. If you pray ask that I find the strength and courage to do what I must do, because I am feeling lost and alone right now. My husband is in Detroit and I can't seem to find him by phone. He will be home in an hour or two, I'm sure. But right now, I'm alone.
I'm going back to the hospital soon. My mother goes in and out of consciousness, I hope to catch her during a lucid moment.
