Thank you Sue - and that’s good to know about the morphine. Did your mom have lung cancer? I’m curious when they gave her the drops. That’s so wonderful you could be with them…

My Mom had COPD from industrial pollution, not smoking, and Congestive Heart Failure. When she was in palliative care, she was given sublingual drops while in the hospital. These followed her into hospice, and were only used if she felt short of breath, or her breathing was labored.
