Hi
I'm just looking for a little advice, family member went into hospital 5 weeks ago we were told they were at end of life and she seemed to not have long left however she bounced back and wanted to come home so we arranged this and got care in place. She seemed quite stable for a couple of weeks then a week ago deteriorated again, we're at the stage she has a catheter, isn't mobile at all, on syringe driver, very confused, hallucinating. We prepared for her to have hours then midweek she picked up again. Talking more, made peace with dying, eating a little, drinking slightly more, saying goodbye to people. She now believes she's getting better and has said she isn't dying. We're all so confused. Is this a rally or is it lasting too long? She's sleeping for most of the day but coming round and chatting although can be confused and speech is quiet. Eating soup in small quantities but mouth very dry and drinking a reasonable amount.
We're all doing what we can as she wants to remain at home but we just don't know what to expect now. Thanks if you can offer any advice in similar situation
