At this point, I get it…I get it! Let your mom call the plays as the game changes. You’re handling everything perfectly from my perspective. When my mom was 88 we went through similar…different disease but she declined treatment. I was 48 at the time and had known her to be a ‘take charge’, resilient woman who made wise choices for herself and her family. Who was I to deny her that right as she aged?
Of course, that shouldn’t stop us older ‘kids’ from maybe nudging in a different direction or being a sounding board. But at 88, your mom is comfortable with her decision and her terms. Have to respect that! ☺️
