My mother had some Focal Seizures I suspect they were due to a stroke, of course the speculation. They continued to the hospital where she went into Cardiac Arrest but after chest compressions for a while, they got her back. I signed a Do not Resuscitate form so no tests were done except a blood gas. Now she's back home under Hospice care.

@jakedduck1 Leonard, I am sorry to hear about this. I know that tonight maybe a night of not a lot of sleep for you, as you ponder what will be happening in the next week or even the next few days. Do you have family to call to advise them of the current situation? Please be gentle on yourself and know that we are thinking about you.

@jakedduck1 This may be a rough time for you but hospice can be a great help. Remember, your mother trusted you with her care. She knew that you were strong when she entrusted you to care for her. You are doing the right thing now and you’ll never have any regrets. Actually, you’ve demonstrated to others that it’s a privilege to care for the one who cared for you. All of your foodie friends at MCC are here for you. Becky
