Well, she changed this last week into a different person by day.. sometimes seeming by the hour! I found her records from er visits that refer her to her oncologist due to the cancer they saw in Pelvis, renal gland, kidney & abdominal wall 😞 Her belly hurt (she says) of constipation!. After 4 days of giving her magnesium citrate she finally had BM, normal next day. Then nothing again. It was then she took to bed only going to front room once. 3rd day, Morphine increased,& Ativan. Which she didn't want all the time. Woke 4th day afternoon struggling to speak, understand. Rough pain day/night.Day 5 woke with mouth full of yuck, barely can swallow &,hadn't eaten but few bites applesauce after morphine kill the taste! By now I'm giving her drink by straw dipping. Before bed, she's yelling help me constantly, talking to her passed Mom, calling me momma. Up all night with her screaming! By daylight she could not speak! Making moans. By afternoon labored breathing,(O2 levels 34++--). She seems catatonic! She was gone by 8pm that night 😞How can that happen that fast? I'm so angry/sad! My Mommy,My Best friend gone?!!!! Uhhhhggg
