Oh no gar, I really am sorry to hear the sad news about your mum. It's so sad to have lost her to such an awful disease. I'm really glad that your dad was able to go and see her before she passed away. I'm sure it gave her some comfort, even if she may not have known exactly who he was. And some measure of comfort for him too, no doubt. (((Hugs))) to you my friend.

gar I'm so very sorry to read your news. This year will live in people's memories for all the wrong reasons. I'm glad for you all that your dad and sister were there at the end and that mum had family with her. That will be a very small comfort for you. Gentle hugs to you. Even when a loss is expected, it can still hit hard. xx

He felt so guilty about not being able to look after her at home I felt the same when we couldn't bring my dad home in January under our county's hospice (long story and I will never support them again) and I still kind of feel the same. But then I realized he had great hospice care in the hospital and for that I am grateful. I am so sorry for your loss. The loss of a parent is like no other. I am so glad your dad and sister were able to be with her. Godspeed.

I’m so sorry for your loss.
I also lost my mom to Alzheimer’s and my dad also felt guilty for not being able to care for mom at the end. But she was better off in a care facility for many reasons.
It will take time to grieve — we have to uncover memories of the parent we had before Alzheimer’s in order mourn their loss. Thinking of you.

I'm so sorry for your loss.
I understand why your dad feels guilt. I hope, though, that he will take comfort in knowing she was well cared for by people who knew what the expect and how to make your mom comfortable. It's just an impossible situation to be in particularly right now.
