So this week was a pretty tough week.  Mom has been refusing to eat, drink and take meds.  She hasn't pooped for 8 days now so it's been a pretty big challenge with her as of late. She also sleeps a lot and has been very weak because she isn't eating.  

We were seek by a doctor on Saturday.  I asked for a referral to hospice.  Mom is ready to die.  She no longer has anything to live for.  Her life is rather depressing.  She just stays at home to sleep and watch tv.  

Come to find out, she has another UTI. So I started her macrobid just in case.    But the reality is that I don't know how well she will tolerate it. 

I know that i have some very tough decisions ahead of me in the coming days, weeks and months.
