Hello, I'm new to all this but I need to talk about it before I break. My beautiful, brave strong mum has suffered one health problem after the other all her life, after a difficult time at Christmas where we thought she'd had a stroke as her left arm and leg had become very weak and her mouth had dropped on one side. Mum finally had a CT scan where we were told that she had a grade 4 glioblastoma and could not be treated. Our World just fell apart from that moment. We were told weeks to months and to go home and enjoy the time we have left. Since then mum has lost all mobility and has become very confused most of the time. The other morning we woke up and mum s breathing was awful, she was gurgling and sounds of bubbles at the back of her throat, we could not wake her and her mouth open. The district nurse came and said to get the family here and sit with mum as today could be her last. I was mortified. We spent 24 hrs at her bedside wondering if each breath would be her last. ( also her hands, feet and lips were blue) Then in the next few hrs her colour came back and she opened her eyes and began to talk, nothing that made any sense but even so. 3 days on and she's still fighting. I know we've got to go through this all again soon but I'm grateful for the extra days we've been given. The nurses can't believe how my mum came back from this and said they have never seen anything like it before.
