Hello, I have been seeing her with my sister recently. She sleeps all the time and as the desiese progresses well it is really terrible. I still kiss, hug, hold her hand and pray with her. Actually now my sister plays the Our Father in Italian for her. No matter if my mom responds to us, it's really all about her and not us. Love you Mom, see you next week or in Heaven. God bless you.

    This made me cry. I am having a really hard time with both my parents who live with me - one with AZ one with D, but mom is really late stage and fighting being bedbound, although it would probably be for the best for her. Every day is hard. Every day.

    Hello, I am so sorry you are going through such a tough situation with both parents at the same time. I hope you are not doing this alone, there is no way I could of done anything for my Mom without my family's help. Especially God and my sister. You are a saint helping your parents. God bless you. ✌️
