First of all, I can only offer condolences on your loss and encourage you to stay strong in this time. I myself have a mother that is seriously ill, she is a Type 1 fragile diabetic (which is apparently the worse kind of diabetes) and has a kidney transplant that has lasted for 7 years and still is functioning. She has recently been hospitalized twice this year, the second hospitalization confirmed that she has five blockages in her heart... but... they also found a tumor in her intestine and she has been diagnosed with cancer, a treatable form and she is currently in a rehabilitation center. However, this thread is not about my mother but yours so I just want to say that I have lots of sympathy for you and I will keep you in my thoughts and everything will turn out ok as you have support from relatives and you have support here. So...
(((hugs)))
