Well, my Mom is still fighting.

Today is her 3rd round of Dialysis and my sis says she seems to be getting through it alright.

These are tough times indeed for me, but I remain hopeful.

I appreciate all your prayers.

Thoughts are with you, stay strong.

We are all here for you buddy

hang in there man.

I'm sorry bro.
Thoughts are with you and your family

My nan (87) went through something similar recently, she was in hospital for almost 3 months before being moved to a nursing home. Aside from needing daily care (she's almost blind, partly deaf and can't walk very far) she's fine. In great mental health.

She gets family visits every day. My turn Wednesday. That's her choice, she likes us to come on separate days so we talk to her and not each other. I think that regular contact (from family or friends) is the most important thing.

Try to stay positive.

Sad news, Jeff.

My thoughts are with you and your family.

Sorry to hear this.

I hope the treatment continues to help and it settles down. I can relate to the elderly father who struggles with the situation. It can be a lot for anybody but age does throw a spanner in the works.

All the best

Tough times, I’ve been through this with my mum. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Jeff.

Thanks everyone!

Things are a bit brighter today, it appears.  She still needs to start breathing on her own, but has survived the Dialysis.

We remain hopeful and all your support is beyond appreciated.

Jeff,

Best wishes to your Mom for a speedy recovery. I know it's not easy. Just checked my own Mom into a nursing home after a lengthy illness, and it is beyond words the range of emotions one has to go through in trying times like these. Stay strong and hope for the best, brother. All my best...

Well, the fight is over and my Mom passed into God's hands this morning at 12:45 PM CST.

She went peacefully, and we are all alright with this, as she was done with the fight.

My girlfriend, Teri, and I were able to "talk" with her her last night about 9:00 PM MST, and it was the first time she was somewhat "awake" in the last 11 days.  Teri told her to breathe out loud if she heard us, and she did, multiple times.  She also whispered my name twice, which were the first words she spoke since she's been in ICU.  The nurse said she was amazed at how much my Mom responded to our words.  It meant the world to me, as I needed that.

Last night, as I slept, she came to me in a dream, and I honestly know she knew I was OK, my sister was OK, and my Dad was going to be OK.

Rest in Peace, Mom.  I love you now and will love you forever!!!

So so sad and sorry for your loss Jeff....we are all here for you, buddy.

Love you (((Hugs)))

So sorry for your loss Bro.
My deepest condolences to you and your family.

Very very sad, Jeff. So sorry to hear your dear Mom passed away. Losing a parent is awful, we want to hang on to them forever... Hang in there, and lean on each other for support.
