By this time, Mom had really already given up because she was not even taking the medicines that would help slow down the disease. Jamie told me she quit taking the medicines before we knew. I remember her not taking her medicines was an issue one day. She did not want to take them, and Dad said something to her. Dad, in trying to get her to take the medicines, mentioned the grandchildren and her being around to see them. She commented, “Not like this.” This was hard for us to take. It was one of the first decisions she made about how she wanted to handle her terminal illness.
U Are you accepting the loved one’s decision with how they want to handle the fate of their terminal illness and eventually their death? U
