Hello Lisa,

                l appreciate how many emotions are fighting within you at this sad time, and the uphill struggle to maintain your equilibrium,whilst trying to make the most of the time left to share with her,so its good to read you are sharing some special moments.

                                                                                              Very often people nearing the end of life have a brief period where they rally,and lve always known it as being referred to as the Golden Time,a chance to enjoy and leave good memories behind,and for the sufferer to put head,heart and mind in order.

                      As you have rightly pointed out the heavy medication discontinuation will allow your Mum to take the maximum benefit from her current situation,which hopefully will continue for a while longer before a hopefully peaceful descent away from her loved ones.

                                                                                                Its hard losing your Mum,and the knowledge that this inevietable does little to make it any easier when the time comes,but they never really leave you,l felt my Mums presence come to me today whilst doing some building work,and had a chuckle to myself as l know wherever she is,those around her will surely know all about,

                                                                                         Take care,

                                                                                                          David
