My mum has been battling cancer for 22 years, she's got it behind the face, had it in her throat, breast & finally her lungs. The cancer started to spread to her brain last October & she has been completely bed bound since then, these last 2 weeks she has completely stopped eating & has had a syringe driver put in on Sunday, but the reason I'm posting is because even though she has the driver she still seems in pain, it's like she's in and out of conciseness & when she wakes up she cry's our in agony, we phone the district nurses but by the time they come out she has exhausted herself, then the nurses won't admister anything as she is asleep?? We know my mum is in her final days but my concern is she's suffering has any one had any experiences like this?
Many thanks x
