Thank you.

Yes I have my family that gives me little breaks, and I know that I will be able to "sleep" when I can eventually.

I have been taking care of my mom since Aug. 23. I aided my mm in caring for her mother for a year in 2013. I took care of my dad's mom in 2003.

I am one of those people that functions on stress. I need more stress than the average person to function normally. I also like going to the dentist. 😜

Hospice delivered the comfort care kit today.

The sisters are not taking it well. The oldest to too focused on her own life, the middle is still scarred form our dad's passing.

This is my third family that I have helped pass with the aid of hospice.

I feel like I am old hat at this. Which says a lot.

Nobody should ever feel like they are alone in this. there are resources. Should you need them.

Just an update on mom. It's been a time, but I didn't feel the need to burden everyone with my struggle.

She had 0 energy yesterday. Today, she didn't want to get out of bed, just wanted to "rest."

Anyone that has had to see a loved one die from the dreaded disease of cancer knows that the end is nigh.

I have friends and family that are seriously concerned about my well being, I have been here since day one.

I am truly OK with this.

I love my mother, I don.t want her to suffer any longer.

Someone else likes nachos.

Me too.

I never make light of my southern CA weather. I'll take my earthquakes any day over -4 and ice.

My heart goes out to everyone out there getting frozen into their cars, been there done that.

@tgraph52

Well, my low was 52 and my high was 64. 🤣 , still, not 72, but I'm surviving under my blankie.

I know weather has an effect on baked goods, I'm no expert on sourdough, other than it tastes REALY good. Just wondering if your little guys aren't happy with the cold??

Not to do with anything, but there is an Oregon Trail sourdough starter that you can get. Carl's friends or something, I saw it on TikTok earlier.

It must be a sourdough kind of day.

Oh, and it's a #HappyAccident

there are no fails.

Just a puppy doing puppy things.

I have been lacking in my doggie birthday greetings.

Happy Birthday Kevin. #3 on Sunday.

No love like it in the world.

Oh, has it been a time. Nanny cam installed. Sleep is an after thought. She cannot communicate for shit. I have no clue what she wants me to put the water in. I really don't. She is having trouble drinking from a cup she has been drinking from for years. I hate not being able to fix this. I have been able to fix anything up to this point. I can't do anything now.

I hate this feeling.

Made the call for hospice and science care.
These are some of the final calls I should have to make. Once she has passed, Science Care will come pick up her body and take what they need for science, cremate the remains and return them to us with a nice note and memorial. I'll add it to my grandmother's.

I have to wait for the sisters to approve the choice to make certain they do not object to her choices.

Fuck, put your ducks in a row for your kids, please. Then put that row in a folder.

I need to vent.

My mom is dying of cancer. There is no coming back from that. I have accepted that.

I just vented to my sisters what I went through to get her to bed. It’s been rough the last few weeks.

She has no clue how bad she is. She has no pain. I’m grateful. I have been with her 24/7 since diagnoses in August.

I am making the call for palliative care tomorrow.

What gets me is the texts. Some people can be completely tone deaf.

Again, just venting.

Thank you all. ❤️❤️❤️
