I am so very sorry. Like others have said, just be there. I will be the best thing for you in the long run. Take these moments to talk to her and love her.
My heart breaks for you, prayers to you and your family as you travel this road together.

My sister passed away 3 weeks ago. It was hard to see her deteriorate. Just be there, hold her hand and stay close. That’s all you can do. Talk to her, read to her, whatever you want. I’m sorry you are going thorough this.

I'm so sorry.
I am going thru the same thing right now with my Mom. I live about 4 hours from her, my Brother checks on her almost daily. She's 69 been in a nursing home for about 4 years with Dementia.
She no longer speaks or gets out of bed. She doesn't know anyone anymore. She is on hospice care now and is down to about 80lbs. We are hoping she passes peacefully soon. The last 8 months have been rough. Fell broke her hip then after recovering from that she fell 4 times in one month and busted up her face really bad.

I am so sorry. Sit and talk to her, as others have said. You will know that you told her you love her.

Im sorry to hear of your difficult times.
Be with her if you can, talk to her, hold her hand, and remember your good times together. It is a sad and painful time but if it is her time then you will be strong enough to bear the burden.
Hugs to you and yours

My heart goes out to you. My father passed away exactly one month ago and I am still frozen. I spent his last night holding his hand and I am so grateful I was able to do that but I wasn’t there when he passed away and that still fills me with sadness. Be prepared to feel numb for a long while. I still can not feel any emotion except dread. I wake up everyday with a stomach ache and the moment I remember he is gone my emotions just lock down.
I also am am resentful of everyone who needs something from me. I have always been a giver but right now I have nothing left to give. I am staying with my mom whom I love dearly but I just want to be alone.
I guess what I’m trying to say is that you will probably have completely different emotions than you thought you would have and that’s okay. And it will take a bit of time to start feeling normal again. So give yourself time to grieve in whatever way it manifests itself in your life.
ill be thinking of you in the days and weeks ahead.

My mom passed away 2 years ago last week (she died on Halloween). My dad, my husband, my brother and I just sat by her bed the last six hours listening to her breathing change until it peacefully stopped. She had not known us for several years from the dementia, and it was sort of a blessing for her to be at peace. I hope your mom is the same.
Edit - I'm so sorry I just saw that your mom did pass.
