Barbarella's blog: "Life"

Ive written seberal times about my mothers illness, and now it is coming to an end.. on the weekend before christmas she began to have pain and started to decline. She has had good days but now her pain is constant and she refuses to take her medicine both for pain and swelling.  The family has been advised to come and see her as she may not live more than a couple of weeks.

My family has cared for her round the clock and is very grateful for assistance from hospice, and friends who have been here to help. It has saddened me to see everyone in such pain but we all know that she wouldnt want any of us to carry on or make fuss..I just hope that it is over soon for her sake..
