    My mom is in the ICU. She has Lukemia and her organs are starting to shut down. I'm in pieces.

    Really sorry to hear this Chris....my mom died of the same thing over a decade ago and I got to spend her last 10 days with her. The only relief is that it's the end of suffering for those with cancer. I hope she either recovers or passes peacefully! All my elders have now passed so now I'm one of the elders in my family...the torch passes. Surround her with love while you can my friend!

    Thank you for your prayers and well wishes. She has CMML. They just had to put a breathing tube in.

    I really like what @riverman wrote, so I’ll just second that. I’ll pray for healing, but also for you and your family that there can be comfort and love in sharing whatever time she has left.

    We are all thinking of you and your mother. I hope you have been able to spend as much time as possible with her and I’m sure you’ve all shared your feelings with each other. Sorry you’re in pain, hang in there.
