So Tom talked with his bro a couple of times yesterday. Mom is not better. The mass in her lung has gotten bigger. Whenever they take her off her oxygen mask, her blood oxygen level drops and she starts to suffocate. The doctors want to do more tests and we should know more on Monday. They are talking about sending her to Hospice, managing her pain and just waiting. She has a living will forbidding heroic measures.
We’re trying to decide who should go up and when they should go. This decision is complicated by work committments, available time off (or lack thereof) and the fact that we have one vehicle for the two of us. We’re trying to make the best decisions we can, but it’s not easy.
