Mum's elderly and has been deteriorating over the months. Now she's unresponsive and end of life.
I have been at the hospital almost a week waiting for her to pass. My sister has been with me most of the time and other family have been visiting.
I didn't think she'd last this long. But she's just sleeping not suffering afaik?
Luckily I already had holidays booked in for work and they've juggled some shifts. But it would have been tough if they couldn't as I want to be here.
The hospital have been great. Just nowhere to sleep so I got a camp bed. It's been really useful.
Apparently this could go on for weeks? Yesterday morning she was having very long gaps between breathing. We thought this was it. Now she's breathing regularly.
