I’m flying back to Oregon tomorrow. Mom seems to be letting go, has stopped eating and drinking and hospice is starting their “intensive comfort care” protocol with daily visits and more meds. They are advising this could be her final week.

P.S. Mom ate breakfast this morning and they will take her off ICC if she eats again. I’m still going out, already have all my plans and reservations made, but… I don’t know what to think, but am trusting my instinct that I should go out, should be there for a bit with her, and that the end is close. If I’m wrong and this isn’t “it”: okay? Blergh…
