Thankyou for giving me your time and expertise! Yes I did learn a good lesson from that first experience and that was to pay more attention to what is going on about me to avoid silly mistakes as such.
As for my mother…..That was an experience I could have done without but I loved my mother and would never of abandoned her. She just wanted to be able to spend more time with her family and felt she could handle the pain by staying awake. My job was to make some discissions for her at this point and the doctors and nurses answered to me for her care. When I realized how coherent and alert she was the descission was taken out of my hands because my mother was clearly able to make such a discission so it was then my job to get the doctors to do such as she requested. I do not regret for one minute the discission I made on her behalf. She had a week more of her family and was so happy and so much to say. It was a sad time it was a happy time.
