Candles being lit, prayers being said. God Bless you! what a wonderful step child you are.

((( Definitely will light candles for her ))))

Thanks everyone for the prayers, hugs, & candles.

SM has had a very rough day. After we stopped the transfers to commode (on doctor orders) she was miserable and did not understand what was happening. She can't hear or see now. We ran out of the diapers before nurse came and had to use pads. Then the catheter placement was hard as she was quite swollen and this made it painful. Dad was holding both her hands and I her legs. She was struggling and in great pain. During the struggle her G tube got pulled out about an inch, then would not go back in. Nurse said it would not matter so long as it keeps draining. It is not draining so I called the on call nurse. after the G tube incident we gave her the maximum morphine dose and got the catheter in. She has been asleep since then. I am worried.

On call nurse is sending Dr over early in he morning to fix the G tube.

Her time left is about a week.

I'll keep you and your step mum in my thoughts during this really difficult time.

I hope the doctor did arrive and that she's feeling more comfortable now.

Take care of yourself there and thank you for the update. I had wondered how she was doing.

I'll keep a candle burning.
