Supporting my mother with bladder cancer

Not really after any advice at the moment, but I just wanted to join as I know many others are dealing with the awful disease. Whilst there have been many challenges over the last few weeks, my biggest challenge has been getting my mums Morphine at the right balance after her Nephrostomy. I took over from my mum's friend a few days ago and when I arrived my mother was hallucinating and very confused which was awful to see!
