[quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry you are going through this, OP. I did go through a similar process with my mother. It is absolutely agonizing. This is a shame for me, not a brag: I was relieved when she died, as well as heartbroken. The relief was that I was never going to mess it up more. Nothing you do is right, and you are always second-guessing yourself. My mother was on oxygen, and she hid cigarettes to smoke with the oxygen tube flowing. She was in a private apartment, but if things blew up, several people around her would have died. She insisted on sleeping on a couch next to a plate glass coffee table, with the tubings and everything ready to trip her up. I ended up taking leave and sleeping on the floor next to the couch, so that if she got up, I could stop her. There were always more cigarettes hidden than I could find.[/quote]
