Peace at last

My Mam passed away on Wednesday 31st January. She fulfilled her wish to be away from PSP . Mam had to be moved into a nursing home so they could control the pain relief. Something we promised Mam that we wouldn't do. We were well looked after not only mother getting pain relief in minutes, but they provided us with food and drink all day long and could not have asked for anything more in mam's final days.

PSP is so cruel

Thank you for all your support.

I wish you all well

Thank you we looked at a few homes before deciding, but the staff were fantastic from the minute we arrived until the end. We could not have dealt with waiting for district nurse's as they are so busy and could have taken hours to give the pain relief given. Gave us the time to be with Mam in her final days rather than being the carer's

We feel a sense of relief for Mam now she's at rest xx

Your mum got her wish didn’t she. She had said she’d had enough so I hope you feel at peace knowing she made the final decision. It’s hard for you as you are already grieving for your husband so be kind to yourself and give yourself time to grieve in any way you want. I hope you soon find this next chapter of your life can be good, very good. We never forget our loved ones and wish things had been different but life is for living and every minute counts.

Sending you a big hug.

York, I am so sad to hear your news. Not surprised though, as your poor Mum had come to the end of the road? Bless her she went through a lot as do all of our loved ones. May she rest in peace.

It is a relief when our loved ones pass because we know they are not suffering anymore. The awful part is we feel bereft because we are left here. We all get used to it but I don't think we ever get over it. Just try to remember the happy days. I hope you have friends and family around you? You need company now.

God bless and great big hugs to you.
