Should I be preparing for the worst with my Mom's health?

Ok so I was wrong…my mom told me today things are still pretty serious…she still feels horrible and not sure whats going on. I am worried because she doesn’t sound positive. I feel like she not letting on to something. I asked her when they thought she would come home, she said she isn’t coming home because shes really sick. She doesn’t want to talk about it because she says hse lays here thinking about it constantly. She said we should be worried but theres nothing we can do but sit and wait.

How can I sit here and wait? She makes it sound like its not going to get better and theres nothing they can do. She is yellow because her liver isn’t working and its enlarged. You tell me ? I don’t have any answers and she swears she has none either. Everyone in my family is worried and thinking the worst. Should I be preparing myself for something? Thats how I feel. Its beyond repair is what a good friend of the family told me. My mom seems to imply the same thing. This sucks!!!

Answer #1

Hi…Your mom and your whole family are in my prayers. But you have to realize that sometimes there are no answers. More than anything the liver because the liver can heal itself in some instances that can take a great deal of time. If there is nothing they can do such as cancer the you are doing what you need to do and that is pray. Help out around the house and find someone that you can talk to and pray with about all of this. Find something to take up your time, like when my mom was ill, I called every aunt, uncle, and church and got my mom on every prayer chain I could. I wish you and your family the best.

Answer #2

listen to me because im crying my dad just died almost a year ago because of this same problem and he would tell me it was just a tummy pain but I knew better he started looking old and he turned yellow his urine was sill like coke but he came home and two weeks later he passed at home I found his body in bed so if there is any thing I can do send me a message or you can call me

Answer #3

My Grandma I was living with had a similar problem, she was 60 and she had cancer. The doctors told us they couldn’t do anymore for her bc she waited too long to get treated. This is how I dealt with it. Pray, Pray, Pray. Come closer with your mom, talk to her, the whole family needs to come together bc its a very difficult time for her ( not knowing.) And u, stay strong. Through God, all things are possible.
