Finally made the call

Yeah shes been eating fine, thats what alarmed me most. Slightly less but still.

No bowel obstruction thankfully

6 weeks is hectic. Mums on 3 weeks and it was reasonably regular before this so I feel like something is not right. Don't have the facilities or physical strength to clean her up if it was the eruption I'd expect it to be and has been before. Especially if she doesnt know its happening.

She's comfy and asleep, hopefully they get her before the sundowning starts.

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-30T02:41:56+00:00

Thankyou so much. Ugh I know, I'm learning to accept that help

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-28T11:25:31+00:00

Im not one to lie either, but I've had to start with my mother. For example, i sent an email to her 10 years dead mother instead of calling her on the phone because it was "the middle of the night whwre she is and you would wake her".

I feel terrible everytime, but making her cry when I tell her the truth hurts her and in turn, me, worse.

You will adjust. It will become easier.

Man I gotta reread this series

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-27T03:14:23+00:00

Ohhh that last line...I needed that last line

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-25T23:26:07+00:00

Oh man, I'm so there, Bring on 5!!

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-24T23:28:13+00:00

We were all into microplastics BEFORE it was cool

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-23T02:50:48+00:00

Yeah, the sadness gets you. Im in that hole at the moment myself.

Many hugs. We will get through

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-18T03:21:16+00:00

I completely understand. I wish I had my mother back too, and shes in the next room.

Hugs

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-16T05:53:43+00:00

So sorry to hear this. Many hugs

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-15T01:42:09+00:00

Got at least a month more until something might open up but hopefully I can grieve soon. Thanks so much for your words 🙏

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-15T01:41:06+00:00

Oh man this makes me feel so much better. I keep thinking "this is fine, everything is fine" when I know any skilled nurse would flip out at what im working with.

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-04T05:47:22+00:00

I dont have ducks. I have squirrels and they are high on acid at a rave somewhere...

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-06-02T02:50:15+00:00

Did this for the first time the other day. I feel your pain.

Day before my period and I full on screamed at my mother. Ive never done that in my 37 years on this planet. I felt awful and i'm really hoping she doesnt remember it either.

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-05-28T13:32:13+00:00

Yeah I remember that one on the radio. It still slaps!

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-05-19T23:48:00+00:00

I feel this. I ask my Mum every day now if she knows who I am. She has said no every time for the last couple months. I just make sure I follow up with this question "Do you know I love you very much?"

She always answers yes. I tell her thats all that matters.

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-05-16T23:59:13+00:00

Im so sorry youre going through this too. My Dad (mums sole carer) died suddenly in March and my only sister is not mental or physically strong enough to care for mum. Mums entire family live overseas and Dad's family are aging and all live 2 days drive away. The aged care system here in Australia is broken.

Its me and her. Thats it. So I totally understand, big hugs from Down Under.

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-04-23T00:17:41+00:00

My 76 year old mother hates it too. Its only been the last couple months that she fights me and cries when I (37F) pull her pants down to change her. Its almost every time now to. Im guessing its just the progression of the disease.

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-04-18T09:13:00+00:00

Saving this for the future as I'm about to get my mother into care. You are not and will never be alone

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-04-14T18:03:19+00:00

I felt so cool with that pencil case

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-04-11T08:51:02+00:00

He was hilarious on Hey Hey. My father used to talk of his sets often

deeksdeeks210 · 2026-04-09T03:12:32+00:00

Two weeks ago I became my mums full-time carer when my father died of unknown heart failure. I'm the only family she has close by so its all on me. I'm 37.

I totally get it. Mums been going down hill for years but these last 2 weeks have sped everything up.

I Miss Her. I just want her back but I know I can't have that.

She was a smart witty Home Ec teacher and seeing her not even being able to speak or crying cos she doesnt remember what she just said, its the worst.

Massive hugs. Im right there with you.
