Feeling pretty useless with my mum in hospital and I can't do much for her.
Even being in the hospital is hard as there's so much background noise that it triggers my tinnitus to no end, and since she can barely breathe/speak, I can barely understand anything she says :(
They say she's on the mend, but what I saw of her today makes me fearful of how bad she must have been yesterday.
And that was not a conversation I wanted to have with my brother... talks about mum's request for a DNR request or not, which we all have to agree to since we both have powers of attorney or whatever it's called.
Obviously honouring her wishes, but it's not easy to talk or think about it :(
Not to mention my mobility issues make it very hard to get to and from (and walk around within) the hospital she's in (Northern General for those who know that place)
