My lovely Mum - Terminal

I am so sorry to read about your mum’s diagnosis..what a shock for you all.  I think it might be worth speaking to the hospice yourself to explore the options available. I know from other posts that a hospice can provide different levels of care.  The main thing will be how your dad copes with the high level of care your mum will need.  I know that my mum was eventually admitted to a hospice when we could no longer manage her care ourselves.

Such a difficult time for you and the only advice I can offer is use this time to surround you mum with love.  I remember my mum’s last days as a sad but very special time. Xx

Thank you for your reply. I think I will phone the hospice and see what they say - I just assumed that at this point they would be visiting regularly and my Dad would have that support too. It’s been an overwhelming time and I am trying to juggle my own family - albeit they are capable of looking after themselves now, my son has just started Uni too so lots of emotions, work and travelling to stay there so it’s all adding up but I want to be there to support as much as I can.
