Im sorry for you that this is all happening,(your too young to loose your mom  :'(  ) but i can say that hospice is a wonderful gift from God.  They treat thier people with utmost respect and care and it's like 'make a wish' for the patient.  My daughter is going back to work with hopice just for the fact that it is so fulfilling to all. Bless you and give you strength during this time.  Take care of yourself, im glad your doing well with your kidney, and keep up your strength and faith..  Bless your family  :pray;

I hope you and your mom both are much more comfortable with hospice.  They do such good and important work.  Hospitals are such dismal places...the emotional comfort that hospice can offer is usually absent in a hospital setting.  I'm glad your mom made this move.   :cuddle;

As I write this I have tears running down my cheeks.  God Bless you and your family!  We will be praying for you.  I lost my Mon 10 years ago, my Sister 4 years ago, and my Dad 1 year ago.  Lost both in-laws within the last 4 years, and a Grandmother. 

I share your pain!!!!   :cuddle; :cuddle; :cuddle;

Hi Karen- I am glad to hear your kidney is doing great, but I am sorry to hear your Mom is in hospice, losing a parent is difficult.   :grouphug; :grouphug;
