HERE I am 2 years later. Mom had a good run. About 3 1/2 months ago the chemo quit working. She his lived 2 years longer than expected. She is back in bed all the time again. Throws up daily constantly feels constipated. Is very unsteady on her feet is very confused. During her good stretch she moved to her house she had purchased years before to retire in. So now she is 600 miles away. I am scrambling to get there but have to try to wait for school vacation. She keeps telling me she just has a bug. I work in emergency health services I know better. But if denial brings her peace. Don't want her to suffer. I know she doesn't have everything in place. Her bf is in denial and doesn't want to address these topics. The plan on paper is I will stay 10 days but I have everything I need to stay for the duration as it appears she is declining very quickly.
I am scared and want to leave NOW but don't want to upset her and need to try to minimize school absences for kids
