My mom is not doing well. She has been battling breast cancer for the past 3 years. She stopped treatment about a year ago. She won't really tell me, but I think that is about the time frame. She just got tired of chemo, which didn't take well with her. What should have been a 3 month course ended up being two years. Her white cell count was horribly low so they had to keep postponing treatments.
I think she just gave up.
So...now I'm in a predicament. My house looks like a tornado came through as we're moving in 10 days. They live on the most remote part of northern Montana so flying there would be HUGELY expensive and I don't have the money to fly up there.
Dad says she's finding it harder and harder to just get out of bed. (WHY didn't he tell me this before???) Today, she didn't get out of bed and was not really coherent.
My parents are in their late 70's and don't make the best decisions. Their response is always...'well, this will pass.'
I begged him to take Mom to a hospital. It might just be dehydration....whatever. The nearest hospital is over an hour away, and a small one at that.
So, I'm up waiting to hear from him.
I can't believe my timing. I swear the God's are against me right now.
