Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 If your mother does not want a liver transplant... you may ask the doctor how long he thinks she may live. If it is 6 months or less, and your Mom just wants to stay at home...you may ask the doctor about HOSPICE care. Nurses will come to your home and check your mother there. They will give her medications according to what the doctor tells them. She will be kept comfortable until comes the time she may pass away or until she gets well enough to do without them. You may try to call the Area of the Aging in your area also...sometimes they will help people who are disabled, even though they are not quite a senior citizen. If she has diarrhea, her blood work tests will have to be checked to be sure of her electrolyte balance and that she doesn't get dehydrated.
