    Hi! So sorry I have been MIA. How are things going with your Dad? I hope life is treating you well and your dad's progression is remaining slow. We are doing great, the boys are growing so fast. The grief sneaks up on me now and again but I feel like I am in a really good place. I miss my...

    Question about morphine

    My mom was also very fearful of the morphine. She did not want to ever be "out of it" as she put it. We started with .1ml and worked up and never went more often then 4 hours even at the end. I think even at her end she was only getting .5ml so I think just finding where she is comfortable...

    Our boys are doing great! We are in the throws of potty training and our 3 year old is doing so good. I am glad we decided to let him be in control of it and have not put pressure on him. They miss grandma and we talk about her often and they both enjoy looking at pictures and want us to tell...

    I thought I was ready...

    The parts I miss the most are before the ALS and truthfully before my dad got sick and passed away too. I wish my kids could have grown up with my parents active and alive in their lives. I don't so much feel like I am missing out, at least not yet. I wouldn't want either of them here as sick...

    I thought I was ready...

    I thought I was mentally prepared to come over to this section but now I am not so sure. I am so relieved my mom is no longer suffering but I don't think it has hit me yet that she is actually gone. That I can't text her, go visit, trim her nails or pluck her eyebrows. :'(

    How it happened-the end

    What a wonderful and helpful discussion. Not easy to have but so necessary. I am so sorry MLOx for your loss. One thing I would also add is to discuss with your PAL if they are on bi-pap, how they want this handled when the end is near. This was a point for my mother and her husband that was...

    My mommy is singing with the angels

    My mom passed away peacefully today at 12:30pm CST. She was comfortable and the very end came swiftly. May she rest in peace and sing and dance with all her friends and family (including my dad) now that her spirit is free. Thank you for all your prayers, thoughts, kind words and comfort. I...

    The end is near.

    Thank you, all. Mom's eyes are fixed and dialated. Food and water through her tube was stopped on Monday. Her husband will not remove her bi-pap or in his terms "dope" her up. She is on 75mg of pain patch, 1cc of m o r p h every 4 hours and 1/2 cc of a da van every 3 hours. He has been...
