[quote=Anonymous]Hey OP. We went through this with my mom last year, same shocking diagnosis. When I look back, I am so glad I just spent time with her. I remember lying next to her and rubbing her head, and just talking. I told her she was the best mom ever. We kept needing more support and help than we thought we would. You should interview home care agencies now and get that lined up. You might go through a few workers before you find ones that click with your family. I would also advise getting a hospital bed sooner than you think you need one. We waited and it was really hard trying to get my mom comfortable in her regular bed. One thing I’ve been grateful for, in this nightmare of losing her, is that she never had any pain. I hope that your mom is the same. All my hugs to you.[/quote]
