We went and seen MIL on Christmas day and she was really good.

Mind you she was saying a few strange things getting us to look for things

and they were already there.

Saying listen they are talking about me.

My SIL said to the Nurse that the MIL doesn't want to be here any more so I

my words she has given up.

She wont try to feed herself she wont try to walk.

She wont sleep in her bed stay in her chair, it is electronic so she can lay

it back and it can also be lifted up .

I rang the NH this morning and the RN said that she was all over the place

and she isn't a well woman and I said about her fingernails looking blue and

she said the Dr is monitoring this , well I really think they should keep

giving her oxygen if this is the reason.

Why they are turning blue.

I found out she is on 20 mg of Abilify 1 per day. She is on a pill for her

thyroid asprin for her blood and panadol.

That's about all they are giving her now.

Ok I am going I am not well have a nasty cold.

Santa didn't even gift wrap it lol.

Lyn,

Sorry to hear your MIL is giving up. Most people I think, tend to decide what

they will and won't do and it is hard to help them decide differently.

Hope the MD does their job. And hope he is monitoring her. Seems to me too,

oxygen should be kept on if her fingers are blue. I wonder what they mean, the

MD is monitoring her?

Hope things go well. It hasn't been like this a Christmas in a long time. So

much sickness.

Hugs,

lyn,

i am so sorry yuo are right sounds like your mil has given up. it is so

difficult for us to watch them when they are suffering. it was terrible

watching my dad with the dislocated hip, laying in the bed wthhis leg bent

like a stork, abilfy 20 mg is an average does, according to the medsheet one

can takeup to 30 mg. i am down with this stomach virus that santa didnt even

giftwrap for me, so i wont be able to go to the post office until next week, but

i wll mail that stuff out to you, meanwhile feel free to message me anytime,

hope you get over your cold soon, hugs, sharon m

Sorry you have the good old stomach virus.

Santa wasn't nice to either of us lol.

When I cough it just cuts right through my throat it just hurts, oh well it

is getting better as time goes on.

MIL has given up and to be honest she has no intention of helping herself.

She was talking to the is person called Geoff the other day but there was no

one there. Which I think is the sad part.

Her daughter rang her the other day and she didn't want to talk to heart all

She wont leave her room , even to go to the dining room to have her meals.

I just wonder what she is thinking.

i hope we both get better soon and you take care and just be ther for brian

sounds like mum has made her decision and even if one doesnt like it, it is her

right to decide that, as sad as it is. my dad ate up until the end but his

mom who died 31 daysbefore dad stopped eatig and willed herself to go home to

join her hubby, but she knew my dad , her baby boy was going o jion her soon, so

i belive she waited for him and then as he was reachin to te heavens grabbed his

hand and togethr they joined my grandpa. the njurse told me that dad started out

pointing ot the heaven like he was looking for/at someone then he changed from

pointing to reaching out to hold someones hand. he left peacefully but sadly it

wasnt portrayed to me he was immenient in death so he died without a famly

memberthere iwth him. to this day it still upsets me although it wasnt my

fault. hugs, sharon m
