@MMA@freeatlantis.comGood evening all
My mom is still with us, but she's retreating further every day into whatever mental world she inhabits. She seems...dazed. It takes effort to get her to realize that I'm there to see her.
She no longer calls me. She has zero interest in my life (she does still smile when she sees her youngest grandson).
She cannot engage in mutual conversation any longer. Her mind is solely on her meals. So, I bring her treats.
I am serving my mom. It is all about her now.
I grieve.
May the presumably final times with Mom still bring you both some joy. You’ve done right by her.
My friend, I'm so sorry to hear that. It is, in some sense, one of the less rewarding tasks life can throw at you - taking care of a dear loved one, while they no longer acknowledge you, not to mention your deeds 
Your are a moral person and a good daughter. I hope knowing this will give you strength and perseverance in these difficult days. And please know that your virtual friends support you with good thoughts and wishes

Mma, I'm sorry this has been such a long road. You are doing all the hard, holy things. It's so hard to help your mama take this journey, but you are doing great.
We have a little one here with epilepsy and delays and all that goes with that, too. Its hard to be pulled in a million different directions. Just take it one day at a time. It's all you can do. Sending hugs and love. Xx
I'm so sorry.
You poor thing, I'm so sorry.
I can't think of a thing to say that would offer comfort. Having "been there," there aren't any.
Her world is growing smaller, but you are giving her dignity and love by being around and bringing her treats. I personally believe that in some deep place, she knows you're there, but she has other things to focus on now, and that's where her energy is.
While it's all about her, you say, this is a process for you, too. Be kind to yourself. You matter too.
I and your FA Family are sending up prayers for your Mom and you.
