I'm sitting here crying my eyes out now, she is on hospice and they told my that refusing to eat was one of the first things that they would do, this puts this in "so called" power. Mother is about 92 lbs now, can't get up, she doesn't know me most of the time. I don't know what to do. I know a nursing home will not take care of her needs like I do but, I feel llike I'm not doing such a good job now. I can't even force her to drink ensure now. Hospice has been a God send, they come in and bath her 3 time a week, the nurse checks on her2 =3 times a week and if I need her she comes. Trust me, my prayers are with you, all we can do is pray.
