Things became very bad last Thursday, as mum deteriorated a great deal she now can't sit up or stand or eat unassisted. It was decided that she should go into the hospice. This is now Monday and she is still awake but hallucinating now and then. She keeps asking why my sister's dog is in the ward??
I have came back to work as sadly life has to go as usual, if things get worse I am closer to the hospice at work than at home. It's her Birthday on Friday so fingers crossed that she's with us for that.
