This is so surreal. We admitted her to hospice care on Wednesday. She was able to have 2 really good visits with family where she was lucid and able to talk. Thursday she gently slipped into a sleep we knew she wouldn't wake up from. They called me at 10:45 this morning, when I was in the doctors office which is why I knew the time. 2 friends were with her. I haven't stopped moving all day, there's just so. much. to. do.
We did not have the best relationship, though we both tried after dad died in 2007. I know she's with dad and they're both so happy to be together again. I've been dreaming about him the past couple of days. In my dreams he's driving with her, they are young and so happy to be together.
This happened really, really fast though when I look back on it she never truly came back from the flu/pneumonia that landed her in the hospital in January. I think that's one of the reasons she didn't want to fight harder when the meds didn't work, she was just tired.
I've read so many threads of people who have had to do this, but I never thought I'd be doing it now. I think we both thought we had more time.

I just found out today that my sil's mom has been put on hospice care. She hasn't taken any food for 4 days and is on a morphine drip.
Big hugs to you during this time of loss and reflection. Don't be hard on yourself.

So sorry for the loss of your mom. Be kind to yourself. Prayers and hugs.
Many of us have complicated relationships with our mothers. I did. Since my mom died my feelings have been all over the place. Each persons grief is unique. Sorry for your loss.
