She's dying isn't she?

Mum discharged herself from hospital today.

Hiatus hernia. She can't eat or drink anything. Literally throws it straight back up.

Can't walk because her lower back is buggered.

UTI in blood. Been given antibiotics but nothing seems to be giving her a boost.

Sat in a sodding chair for 36 hours at A&E. Not slept for at least 48. Said she just wanted to go home.

I'm really scared 😭

MNHQ EDIT to gently suggest that MNers new to this thread take the time to read through all of the OP's posts before answering

Gosh, that happened so quickly. You must all be in shock. My sincere condolences OP.
I lost my mum when she was 67 in similar circumstances so I have an idea how you must be feeling. I hope that you are receiving lots of support. 💐

I am so sorry for your loss, my own mum passed away last year but she was 90. I was and still am heartbroken so I can only imagine how devastated you must feel to lose your mum so young. Sending love xx

madameimadam · 21/11/2025 10:21

@McSteamyorMcdreamy I am so so sorry for your loss. Just under two weeks ago, I went through near enough the exact thing with my darling Dad. Even the lack of urgency from the hospital. In fact, he had a letter yesterday booking his MRI scan for Nov 30th. Er, bit late… 😡

They did redeem themselves with the palliative care tho and I was with him when he passed peacefully and out of pain.

I am so sorry you know how this feels too.

Sending you my love and strength 💔 We are all here with you xx

Diplidocus4 · 21/11/2025 10:32

My beautiful mummy passed away at 2am.

Surrounded by her husband and 3 children.

She looks so peaceful. 💔

Im so sorry for your loss and all you and she went through. Take comfort from the fact you were all together with her, and all you did for her over the last few weeks.

weirdoboelady · 21/11/2025 11:13

Sending warmest condolences. She is out of pain now and will be thankful to have such a caring, together and supportive daughter. Well done for all your actions over the past period - not so well done to our broken NHS.

WorriedMum14679 · 21/11/2025 11:20

I'm so sorry OP. Really thinking of you today. We are here and listening if you want anything ❤
