My poor Mom has been so sick for the past several months.
She had some minor surgery for rectal prolapse
months ago and has never really recovered. She had
some bleeding issues after the surgery. But they were able
to find the bleed and quickly take care of it. From there, though,
she has continued to get weaker and weaker. She is unable to walk,
either because of the NPH or just overall weakness. We are not sure.
The worst thing is her mental status. She has quite profound dementia.
She doesn't want to eat or take her medicines. She is down to 110 pounds.
My Dad is trying desperately to care for her but he is wearing down too.
I hate the thoughts of her leaving this life, but also am so sad to see
her this way. We are all praying and hoping she will go soon.
