Mitigation
“It took a whole lot of fighting on his part, but he finally got me to agree to sleep in a hotel rather than in a chair in mom’s room. My time with her is running short, and I want to be with her every minute. I feel guilty now... at this very moment, as I stand under the hot water and let it cleanse my body. I feel guilty because I only have precious hours left with my mom, but here I am in the comforts of a swank hotel.
The only reason I’m here is because Matt gently reminded me that my mother... is essentially gone already. That she has no comprehension, and she wouldn’t know if I was sitting by her side or sitting in a hotel. But the real kicker—the way Matt got me—was he told me that based on what he’d learned about my mom that day, she wouldn’t want her daughter suffering and would want her to get some rest.
I caved, and now here I am.
I had made my decision to discontinue extraordinary measures for my mom. Dr. Fritz asked how much time I would need for friends and family to say goodbye, and I honestly wasn’t sure.MoreLess
