I am so sorry for what you and your family are going through. If there is a modicum of comfort to take from this, it may be that your mom was able to live at home until this point. My mom has had a series of strokes and is in a care facility nearby. Placing her in a nursing home was hell for her, and for me. She was always the caregiver and a geriatric nurse herself. Sad turn of events...
Please know your DU family is thinking of you and your mom and that you aren't alone. When times get tough, know someone, somewhere is holding you in their prayers or sending warm vibes your way.
