My beloved grandmother is reaching the end of life stage now. Advanced dementia, multiple health issues, severe weightless, Bed bound, mostly sleeping, minimum fluid intake. We always knew this was coming but the deterioration has happened so fast.
We have had such a struggle to with DNS in terms of getting her the correct pain relief, a fight at every corner and her pain is still not controlled. It's heartbreaking and draining.
I don't know how long we have but I don't think it will be very long. I have found many of the end of life stories on here comforting and helpful for preparing me for all that is to come, so if anyone would like to share their story it would be really appreciated, I'm not asking you to sugar coat it, I know the experiences vary massively.
Thankyou
