And now she gets panicky or disoriented if I leave her for a few hours or if she wakes up. Not sure which, there's a confound. The latter could make sense given the zilch sleep she's had, but the disorientation is longer-lasting and less self-resolving than anything I've had.

Thanks for the various well-wishes in response to the last message.

I'm sorry to hear about all this. At least she's getting some treatment now. I've lost a parent myself, so I think you're doing the right thing to spend as much time as possible with her, while still hoping that she gets better. If you want to grab some lunch at some point and/or talk, just drop me a line.

My sympathies.

I wasn't anywhere near either of my parents in their last days, and regret it.

It is good you are there with her, for you both. I know it feels very hard now, but when you look back you will know it was the right thing.

I don't know if you'll see my other post, so I'll reiterate: you should call me if you want/need to and I hope you're "okay".

Thank you! But yes, I did see it. E-mail notification tells me all. :)

Hi -- so sorry to hear about your mom -- I'm just back in town and catching up on LJ. We should definitely go get coffee/lunch when you're back in town.
