Nearing the end of a long drive - 22 hours from Munich
I am back in
I want to be here to talk to them to try and put my mother’s viewpoint – in as much as I can estimate what it is – and find out how much say I really have in any decisions which are being considered for her at the moment.
Perhaps it is unfair of me to call them vultures – it is just that it must be easy to deal with a patient the way that suits you when she cannot say what she thinks or what she wants and there is no-one else there to represent her side of the story.
Perhaps if I make enough noise they will at least know that I will kick up a stink if I am not consulted where I should be or have a right to be…
She is still not eating or drinking much…has lost another 7 kilos and so is down to 41 now…I will go and see her tomorrow. If I have to be honest I am not looking forward to that very much...

No, they're vultures.. Circling, waiting.. PLEASE make sure you do all you can to get your mother's viewpoints across. People lost all sense of that during that awful Terri Schiavo thing.. Jeez. None of that was about her..
Blessings to you both.
In retrospect I DO think "vultures" is a bit unfair. They are just people with their own agendas and my mother is just another case for THEM...I am making noise though so that they know someone is watching...
Thanks for your message too.
