Catwoman Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I don't even know what to say. I'm so sorry. :( My friend went through this with her father and he seemed very certain about it, but then he changed his mind and went back on dialysis. Do you think there is anyone who might be able to talk with your mom and convince her to give it another try? Is she on a transplant list?

Jean in Newcastle Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I'm sorry. Please talk to the social worker or nurse manager at the dialysis center. They are very good at helping family members going through this. (This is my dh's job.) Dialysis can be so hard on a person physically and emotionally. :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MooCow Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Never was eligible for transplant. Been doing it for ten years, mainly cause I begged her too when we first found out she had end stage renal failure. Had just had youngest, wanted him to have memories of her. She's tired. She wants to go home. Her kidney doc asked her about it, she's been missing treatments , they talked . I took mom to hospital today, they put her in ICU. Then she saw her doc and had the talk. He asked her flat out, she said she's done. I'm sorry I have a really bad headache. I'll finish it tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Please don't feel like you have to explain anything or give us any details if it's too painful for you. We're here for you if you need to talk -- but we'll still be right here if you don't. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
