Sure. Burst my bubble.
Snice when has that stop youSure. Burst my bubble.
Good morning friends. Today is the day I have to call in hospice for my momma. After last weeks visit to the cancer doc, we learned that none of the treatments are working and she has 6 months or perhaps just weeks to live. she still feels good and says she doesn’t feel like she only has 6 months. It’s true too, she is still out and about doing all kinds of things. She still has a bright mind and can actually drive very good. Her driving days will end soon tho as the pain management part comes up as she will be taking pain meds more often. Now she only takes gabapentin and Alieve but got a prescription for stronger meds while we were at the docs office. She has been planning and preparing these last few months by downsizing her load of stuff and making peace with everyone. Her attitude has changed in the last few weeks in a good way as she has not been irritable to everyone around her as she has been in the last year or so. I’m sure her health has not helped this. My little brother will come up to stay with her when she starts needing someone around 24 hours as he can work from anywhere and I only live 5 minutes away so I can get over there pretty quick if he needs help overnight and of course during the day I can be there to help.
Yall wish me luck with starting the ball rolling with hospice..
hope everyone has a beautiful Monday
