hi everyone I haven't been on this site for a long time, it was just getting to hard to read everyone's story.
My mom has ALS it has been two years now and she is dying now.
She is in the hospital and is waiting to be placed in a nursing home.
She hasn't been able to eat anything for about 5 months now and has had a feeding tube for about 9 months.
She is suffering, that is what this disease does, it makes you suffer, she doesn't deserve this hell, she's such a good mom, and I just don't know what to do. I'm sorry I might not make much sense I'm just so sad because in a way and I hate to say this but I do want it to end for her.
She's such a brave person she's even donated her body to science after her death so she can help people in the future.
This is the first weekend that she hasn't been with me (I took her out of the personal care home every weekend)
But her needs are greater than I can do now and it makes me feel powerless.
I hope she goes soon .......I'm sorry to say this
