Thanks for the support guys!!
She was a little more awake today, and seemed better! But we know the truth. Quote:
she was also not under standing the DNR and wanted it done a different way with conditions, doc told her its yes or no nothing in between! so after we spoke i said the best way is let them try to save you, and if they can great, but when the doc tells me you are gone, i will get the brothers together and we will tell him to let you go, i promise i will not let you be on all them machines, and she agreed and thanked me. but that's another thing that i hope i never have to do!! just hope in the end its fast and painless for her!!

MJ...I know the end came pretty quietly for my mom in 2008...she was in a nursing home and just kind of drifted away...interesting; the ladies who work there, told us to the day when she would pass 3 days in advance...after a while, they can see it coming...they just know...

Thanks All!
mom is coming home tomorrow, she has said for years now that she never wanted to be put in a nursing home or anything!!! She always said she wanted to die at home, and she asked to go home yesterday!! Well after talking with doc last night i called hospice this morning at 9am, they meet me at thye hosiptal at 1:30 pj, after a 1 hour meeting they ordered a hosptai bed, walker, wheelchair, and all meds and other things we will need to get her home. Boy they are fast all was delivered at her house today at 4:30pm!! The doc called 6pm to answer some questions i had on her meds, as there was a question on soime of the meds that needed to be cleared up. I also called my uncle in NY as she wants to be put with her mother anf father, so I need to know the cost of everything. I wrote her a letter for mothers day a few weeks ago, but she might not make it? So I am going to give it to her soon, here it is Mom I know this is not a fancy store bought card with pretty pictures, and a fancy poem. But it***8217;s the only way I could get one to say what I wanted!
Ma, I know I never say it, but I hope you already know just how much you mean to me!! For some reason I feel stupid to say it, even to you? But I am so glad you are my mother!! It is in a large part because of you that I am the man I am today, and I am grateful for that, and all the things you have taught me, and have done for me! This is why I am choosing this Mothers Day to say***8230;***8230; I LOVE YOU!!

Only real men can talk to and about their mother in those terms...you stepped up to a tough plate, MJ...

Like Reel just said, only real men, men that are secure in themselves, can talk in those terms. I tell my mom every chance I get that I love her. I just wish I would have told my father before he died. It's a regret that I'll carry for the rest of my life. Telling your mom now is the best thing that you can do for both of you. God bless you both.
