I think my mom is dying and I'm very upset.
Post Body

I've experienced a lot of family deaths (dad, stepdad, aunts, uncles...etc). I'm now facing my mother's end and I'm having a hard time coping. I have a sister who I love and cherish but she handles these types of situations differently. Any sage advice?

My mom has been slowing down (obvs) but the last few days seem serious. She's not in pain but sleeping all the time and not eating.I want to take her to the hospital but she is pissed when I bring it up. What do?

Edit: thank you. The tears are streaming so I can't possibly answer everyone. Thank you all.

Edit 2: she is in the hospital and it's a lung infection. 🙏🙏🙏

My heart goes out to you. My mother is dying too, of Lewy Body Dementia, and we've been taking care of her here at home but it's probably past time to let professionals take over. Looks like she's entering the final stage. As my mother she was a solid provider but a bit of an abuser so my sentiments are convoluted. Still, she's my mother and it's been a real challenge coming to terms with it. OP, I hope you experience some growth and peace through the process.
