Sounds like a rock/hard place kind of situation . . . sending thoughts/prayers your way for a 'best outcome.'

Such a difficult, frustrating and stressful situation for you all on top of your Mother being unwell. I wish you all the best and my thoughts are with you. P x

I don't know your mothers situation, but it sounds like you're all having issues with healthcare and this is why living wills and health care proxies are so vital. If you haven't already obtain papers for yourself, this seems like a good time to settle that and sit down with your family or friends and discuss healthcare decisions. (No one WANTS to do this but it's better to now than never) Let them know what you want and don't want and especially no friction amongst anyone. All too often families are torn apart due to this. Being far away in this crucial time doesn't help matters but if you feel you need to see and talk to your Mother by all means go and don't worry about conversing with the others.(easier said than done) I hope everything works out the best for her whatever decision is made. Is your mother able to talk? Is your Father? Like I said idk your whole situation and maybe she already does have those matters settled and something has come awry during the process but I am sending prayers that you all will be able to get thru this. 🙏🏻

It sounds as if this is out of your hands now ... so, take a breather and go and do something for yourself today. When it's time to deal with the mess ... then you do it. No sense worrying ... yet. Hugs!

Families can suck the life out of us...people tend to do poorly when confronted with real life situations. Go throw some weights around for a while...

You are in my prayers. {{hugs}}

Thanks everyone. I'm hanging in. Not going anywhere until Friday morning. I think I'll be silent tomorrow while things get revealed. I'll weigh in and post food, but I likely won't be saying much. I appreciate everyone here. @suzy You're right. What SjF said was very sweet. It's odd getting encouragement from a ... shopping bag? :)

I hadn't thought of that. Maybe some nice white bread. I could use some comfort food. It would seem I'm moving to calorie deficit. 2300 calories today. That's at least 400 under maintenance. I'll use this time to lose a pound or two, except I'm going to my son's for Easter.

Yes. This is Easter. Good Friday tomorrow. We'll be careful. Hoping the ice and snow is off the high pass. It's been pretty easy so far this year. Lowest it got was -25 for a couple of days. Used to hit -35 and stay for a week or two.

From what you are describing- it sounds like a similar situation as my family and I went through with my grandma. Also it is similar to what my boyfriend is going through with his grandma currently Very tough- prayers are with you and your family
