Home hospice. It's a good thing, but it aint easy. Trying to go about activities of daily living while your loved one is dying in the other room is grindingly painful - and guilt laden. But the old saying "life goes on". And it does. In spite of everything. Thanks to everyone one here on Poal keeping me laughing and reminding me we're all going through it, whatever "it" may be. Cheers.

I’m sorry for your loss, but living to 96 is huge.

I bet it brought your mom a lot of peace knowing you were just in the next room at such a difficult time.

Unfortunately this is something we all have to go through. I respect your strength and your presence of mind to reach out for human interaction, understanding, and love.

It’s at times like these that our ability to empathize with our fellow humans can make a big difference in both the processing and healing from grief.

It’s also a reminder that we aren’t like the soulless black hats we’ve suffered under for years.

Sending positive, healing vibes your way.
