I have not posted here in a long time, but wanted to share that my mother passed peacefully yesterday.  She was in the end stage of this wretched disease, and stopped eating a week ago.  Hospice was on board, and helped keep her comfortable.  My sister and I were by her side when she left this world. 

Many thanks to the members and moderators here who helped carry me through this journey.  I am grateful for your advice, support and friendship.

    Dear Cody, I send my sympathy to you on the loss of your dear mother. 

    It was a very long journey with many changes as time passed; you certainly rose well to the mightly challenges. Your mother was blessed to have such a loving and concerned daughter as well as a good advocate on her behalf.

    May you soon find solace and peace; especially in the knowledge of how much care went into your caring and caregiving.

    J.
