Are you sure that she is dying? The first thing that I would do is make sure that she knew the Lord and had been saved before she died. This is most important so that you can have the reassurance that she will be at peace with the Lord when she is gone. If she has not done this, you can invite a preacher or someone else that you are close to that is a Christian and have them lead her to the Lord. Then the next thign is try to do the very best that you can do for her. Provide for her what she wants and needs. Love her, Love her, Love her. Make sure that she knows God before she enters the final destiny.

Talk to her while she is still coherent. My mom got Alzheimer's fast and to her I was her sister, nicknamed Toopey, for the last 6 mo. She could figure out the other kids but not me and I was the one who stayed with her all the time. During her many stays in the hosp., since I was a little girl, she would ask the others to get me to come back when I had gone home to rest. I was with her alone in the end (and her new beginning!) and I am glad that I was. She went to heaven where her heart and mind would be restored. She is with her 3 babies and the twins that she lost prematurely, because of her heart, and rocking them on the porch of her mansion and is singing Rock of Ages or In the Garden to them. If she is in a fiesty mood she will be singing Bye oh Bye oh Baby over and over! I hope that you and your mom have the peace that I did at the moment of my mom's death!

if she is ok with it, talk about dying. Talk about living. Let her share the dying process with you. It is not the end you know, its an adventure and it can be not as scary if she has someone to share it with. Spend alot of time holding her, tell her the things you recall about her when you were little. Tell her what a great legacy she will leave. Help her tie up loose ends, make amends but mostly just be patient with her. The dying process starts well before actual death. Read about it and be open to it. it s a journey to the next level. I wish you strength and love.

Mom loves the beach. I'd take her there, have lunch. Get a pedicure and a massage. Go back home & watch old John Wayne movies (her favorites) and share root beer floats. We'd have a blast & laugh all night. We're great friends. She's kinda mean, but, I can take it, knowin' she's passing & all. I tell her all the time I love her, even now. She's real insecure. It's ok. I do love her, so I don't mind.

-I would apologize for everything I did and did not do, and I would try to understand how that made her feel.
-I would ask her how did it feel to be a mother
-I would ask her if she was missing her youth
-I would ask her does she regret anything she did, and if she did how did it feel.
-I would ask her if she is afraid of dieing
-I would ask her if she will wait for me in heaven or where ever she's going to go.
-I would ask her what she would miss the most once she is gone
-I don't think I would be able to even begin telling her how much it means to me that out of all people on Earth she got to be MY mother - I have been continuously trying to let her know that throughout our live together.

I would say everything. I would sit with her and watch sunsets. I would wake early and watch the sunrises. I would find out as much about her as a person as I could. I would want to know everything: her fears, her dreams, her hopes. I would ask for stories from her childhood and teenage years. I would ask her to tell me of her experiences when being pregnant with me. I would ask for her true feelings when she and my father were divorcing and how she managed to keep going and not let them show to me. I would ask her what her dreams were for me and how she would feel were I to not live up to them. I would ask her to help me in preparing to say goodbye to her by knowing how she has said goodbye to others in her life. I would tell her all my little secrets without fear of her disapproval. I would ask her what she would like her grandchildren, those she will never know, to know about her. I would let her know that everything was going to be okay...and more importantly, that I would be okay, even if it was a lie.

It is TOTALLY dedendant of thee circumstances of the death, does your mom know? how do you know? How long does she have? How do you know this? Doctors are wrong all the time, unless you have a second and for that matter a 5th opinion, do only show smiles and cry only when she wants too, it is her time not yours, do not get in the light here, it is her's right now

I would stay with her for most of the time left she has. I would really try to make her not nervous or scared and maybe even tell her that death is not the end of a person, it's a wholl new beginning!
Hope you love her!
