About 5 years ago she was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer that had metastasized into her bone marrow. I've been taking care of her but it's gotten progressively worse. Now her liver is failing. Her skin is yellow, so are her eyes. We don't know how long she has left but it's not long. The last 3 months she's been in and out of hospitals and rehabilitation centers. She had her gal bladder removed. Now they moved her home and put her on hospice care. Taking care of my mom while she slowly dies is the hardest thing I've ever had to do. Hopefully she'll be alive tomorrow so we can get me appointed her power of attorney.
Sorry I don't post very much. I'm an empath so it's hard plus I'm always under a lot of stress. I got complex PTSD from taking care of my grandpa who had parkensin's disease before he died, then my uncle died of seizures, then my other uncle got cancer and me and my mom were taking care of my grandma who had lewy body disease, then my mom developed a life threatening infection from a bed sore and I saved her life by taking her to the hospital, so I had to take care of my grandma on my own, then my uncle died of cancer, then my grandma died, then my mom got cancer and now she's dying.

Due to my increased paranoia, anxiety, and a panic attack over the weekend, my psychiatrist has put me back in a full dose of Zyprexa until further notice. Every time I think I'm getting ahead something happens and it's back to square one. I knew he was gonna do this but I can't help feeling disappointed. It is what it is.
