Thank. You

[RoadRunner44]

Of course you are sad. But dont forget Oshgosh, its only because you loved your Mum that you grieve. One cannot experience grief if they haven't experienced love in the first place. It's good that you have decided to share your feelings on the forum as there are so many of us who will understand how you are feeling right now. Look forward now, in the knowledge you enjoyed a wonderful relationship with your mum and have some lovely memories to treasure and comfort you. My thoughts are with you. Chrys

Thank you,she was so tired of tablets,blood tests,being dependent on others.she just wanted togo to join my dad.did mention I’ve stared with a chest infection.

I took my rescue antibiotic then thinking about steroids dose.told by a doc inA N E that ifI have an infection my steroid dose should be increased

Of course it’s. New Year’s Day and it’s all shut.

Rang 111.answered all the questions.

She told me to to minor injuries 8 miles away.offwe go,me in PJS. The nurse was lovely she said. I had a chest infection ( I knew)had done all the right things,pleased me cos my husband calls me Dr O, I worked as a nursing assistant for30 years,do know a bit.

I asked her about the steroid dose. She said 7 mgm should be ok!

i dontthink it is ! She told ego see GP Tomorrow,so backtothe 8 am lottery.

I think I will pester the Hospital . Some one must know

Sorry to ramble on.justhavingabad day.

[skischool in reply to Oshgosh]

I don't take steroids but on the very rare occasion i have an infection the normal recommended dose appears to be 30 mg a day for the first five days?and then a taper down as directed.

Dear Oshgosh

The passing of a dear Mum is so very hard for you, even when she has had enough and it was her wish. It is still a shock and I am not surprised you are sad and empty.

My sincere condolences to you and your family and may the memories of the times you spent together also bring you joy.

With love

We all have to die and it must surely be my turn soon. I just hope that I can manage it as well and as peaceful as your Mum did. You mustn't be sad.

[Oshgosh in reply to Hidden]

Thank You. I’m amazed at how she dealt with it

[Hidden in reply to Oshgosh]

A remarkable lady and a great loss for you and your family.

[Oshgosh in reply to Hidden]

Thank you

[ledge]

I send my deepest condolences on the loss of your mum. Its a strange thing that i pondered on the loss of my own mum is that you start life inside her and when her life comes to an end you find that Her life is within you and will remain with you until your own end. She has become part of you and shapes many things that you do say and feel and so her presence will be with you always. Such is love and memories. I hope that the warm and loving memories if her will ease the pain of your loss .

[Oshgosh in reply to ledge]

I am so sorry for your loss. It's what your mum wanted, which shows an incredible clarity of mind, but still no easier for you to deal with. Thinking of you and your family at this sad time 💐

[Ergendl]

So sorry to hear your sad news. Even though it was expected, it is still a real shock to lose your Mum in such a way. ((((Hugs)))).

[Oshgosh in reply to Ergendl]

Thankyou

[Croydonia]

I empathise with you Oshkosh, I lost my mum on the 5th December. She was 95, and although we knew it would happen sometime, it was still a shock when I got the telephone call. I’m still a bit teary and emotional whenever I think of her, and Christmas was a difficult time. I’ve also been diagnosed with possible rheumatoid arthritis, could hardly walk New Year’s Eve. However, we just have to plod on regardless. Best wishes to you

[Oshgosh in reply to Croydonia]

Thankyou

[Ergendl in reply to Croydonia]

((((Hugs)))) for you too, Croydonia.

[Janzo54]

My mum died a few years ago now. I would have wished for her to have avoided her last 18 months in a nursng home, being hoisted to the loo, confused, and in pain. Sometimes I think we are kinder to animals,just hope I go in my sleep like my dad. x

[Oshgosh in reply to Lyd12]

My mum was lucky to die in her own home,that’s a positive memory.

Thank you

[Shazrab]

I’m so sorry to hear your mum has passed, I know that loosing my own mother was extremely difficult and that was just over a year ago, I long to see her and spend time with her every day so I do understand how your heart must be broken, you can only live with the memories now and I’m sure you’ll find you have lots of great memories as time passes more will come back to you. Even though your mum wanted this it’s still very hard to cope with, I do hope you have someone close you can talk to and help you . You still have everyone here to support you. I’m sorry to hear you have a chest infection I do hope it clears up soon and if not at least you can go see your own dr nxt week now that the holiday’s are over , your in my thoughts and prayers God Bless and take good care of yourself 🌹🌹
