My mother is dying and I'm racing to get to her - no point to this thread.

[SphincterSaysWhat]

That's it really.

We're abroad and she's in the NE England. She has had a massive stroke and I'm alone, racing to the airport to get a flight I might miss.

I want to see her before she goes. She's no conscious.

My sister is with her.

My heart is broken into one million piece. No need to respond - I'm just alone (husband back at resort with the kids) so just chatting I suppose. I've had an hour sleep overnight, I look like an actual muppet (crying eyes).

She is 73 and a fire cracker. She's remarkable. My heart is broken.

Glad you made it. Glad you have have each other, your sister and you. And your mum.

This will be me one day, so I really hoped you would make it on time.

I just shed a tear for you, op. So glad you made it. Sending love ❤️

So glad you made it. Do try to eat though, you need to keep well yourself while you wait.

I was in this situation last week. My heart is with you. I promise she can here you, keep talking and I'm so glad you made it ❤️

Thank goodness you made it x

So glad to hear that you are there with your mum and sister, all together supporting and loving her.

I am so glad you made it, I wish you all peace

Love to you and your family x

It's so unfair that you lost your dad so young, and now your mum is critically ill at only 73. I hope you can take some comfort from the fact that you clearly have such a beautiful loving family. Please try to look after yourself in the coming hours even if you don't feel like eating or drinking.

That's good that you made it. Try to take slow deep breaths and eat, especially protein or soup. It's good you have your sister.
My sister and I spent a week with DM before she died. She was elderly though. Your DM isn't that old 😞 Praying for a miracle 🙏

My mother irritated me and I'm sure I irritate my daughter. It's natural. I'm sure she knows you love her.
I'm so sorry I had a similar rush when mother was dying so I know how you feel.
There is nothing anyone can say other than sorry and try and be kind to yourself.

Just take this time for what it is. And do what feels right/instinctive.

Those hours I spent with my Dad in his last few days will stay with me forever.

Wishing you strength and peace

Glad you made it - I had to do the same thing but I had to fly to a foreign country and I made it with a couple of days to spare - sending love to your family

I'm glad airport staff were kind and helpful. In future, you won't remember their names or exactly what they said / did, but you will remember their kindness and compassion at a difficult time xxx

So glad you made it

Our best wishes to you 💐

So glad you made it. Xx

So glad you made it. Sending love x

Sending lots of love OP. I'm glad you got there. Thinking of your family tonight.

All love OP. The best children are the hardest on themselves x

So pleased you made it, and that you were looked after on the way.

Hope you and your sister can draw strength from each other. Look after yourself too.

Sending you strength. 🌺🌺
