Nope. The nurse finally showed nearly 3 hours after they were originally called. Which I guess I wouldn't have minded if ANYONE had called us to let us know he was on his way, and given us an estimate.
I never got through on the main line: after being on hold for 10-15 minutes, the line would just disconnect.
Anyway. The reason we were calling is because Mom stopped breathing at around 5 PM.
So. That's, well. Where we are. I did get to make lots of phone calls while I was waiting.
and Conie , I 'm just sitting with , helping you just hold on
Jesus, Consuela, I'm sorry. That's so not right.
I'm just so sorry, Consuela.
God Consuela, I'm so sorry everything ends up being made harder.
Oof. Way to be the cherry on top. I hope you guys are doing as well as can be expected.
Jesus, Connie. What a horrible pile of stress to add onto the whole horribly stressful experience.
It actually makes me kind of grateful for my mother's death, which had a very thoughtful and attentive and helpful hospice Nurse and we were all around her at the end. It was quiet and intense but she knew she was loved.
