Oh btw ~ She did have a drip put in x2 [sub cut line] but pulled them out both times. Still not drinking enough fluids but much better than before.
Please Pray for My Mom!

Thanks everyone! Hi @charity . Sorry I have not been around for awhile. My internet has been down for 2 weeks and I am sure, by the hand of God.
Here's an update of your prayer support for my mom at the moment. I had been struggling for the last 3 weeks, trying to convince her to eat and drink because she had made up her mind that she was going to depart this earth. Now I really struggled with this because on the one hand, she wanted to go but on the other hand, I took into account her having slight dementia but God settled my heart with the story of King David. When he prayed for his son who he had with Bathsheba. David prayed till God made the decision and I felt moved to do the same for my mom even though the situation was completely different. This was the motivation he gave me and I believed that whatever happened, God's will be done. I went to the supermarket one day trying to think of something that she could eat that she would like since she has stopped eating a week prior and only sipping a minimal amount of water. While I was in the chilled section, I was prompted by the Holy Spirit to go to the baby food section, which I did and brought some choc yoghurt for 6+ babies [6 months old]. She didn't like it much but with a bit of prompting, she started eating a little. I actually told her that God told me to give it to her. This slowly grew over a number of days. My theory was that if I could cultivate her to eat, this would restore her appetite and it slowly began to show promise. The real game changer, if you will, came in a form of a dream where she had a vision after being awoken by a loud powerful voice. She told me she saw a man she believes was God, who told her that she needs to eat and drink, that her time was not up yet. Today she is eating more than she ever had previously. Her water intake is still a little low but she is drinking much more fluids and is more like her old self every day. Thank to all for your prayer support. I believe in the power of prayer [individual and corporate], in Jesus name and I believe in miracles. She still has a way to go but I am at peace about the whole situation now. Whether she lives in this earthly body a little longer or whether she goes to live with Jesus, may his name be glorified forever!! Thank you all!

Hi Angelina,
I don't know what's wrong with your mother,
but my prayers are with you both and also your family.
These are difficult times.
We could be happy that God is by our side.
Lord may your will be done and may you give the healing that is necessary, be it physical or emotional. Stay close to Angelina and her mother and her family., as you said you would always be near us.
Amen.

Hi there.
I did elder care for both of my parents, I know what the roller coaster emotions can be like that go with it. Mine went went the 90's, my mum being 99.
Two years ago I needed surgery...Acalasia...I bet you have never heard of it. :) ( I couldn't swallow .) My daughter started me on baby food. It kept my weight and strength up until my surgery date arrived.
Try your mum on "Gerber's Baby Rice Cereal." I loved it and got totally addicted to it! It is wonderful, try her on that. Just boil the kettle and make it as thick or thin as she likes. Done in seconds.
Also I got addicted to the Heinz Baby Peaches...and lots more. Hey re the Rice Cereal...make sure you buy the "with water"...my husband accidentally bought home one box which said in small writing " Just Add breast milk"... It tasted awful as I obviously used water...so make sure you get the 'Add water'.
Confessing time...it has been two years since my Acalasia surgery...and I am STILL hooked on Gerbers Rice Cereal!! :) I still have a bowl a day.
One time I was tempted in the thread " What did you have for dinner" to be honest and say- " I just ate a bowl of Gerber's Rice Cereal"..but pride kept me from it.
As for your mum dementia ...I wish I had known what I know now, when she was alive. The lady in this link below turned things totally around brain-wise for her poor husband who had Alzheimers...He got his brain back for 8 years.
If it works for Alzheimers it works for Dementia too...any brain-fog. :)
Coconut Oil. It even tastes good, ..well at least pleasant.

Be blessed...Helen

I can only imagine how difficult this is for you, however I am pleased the Lord is guiding you through this; He never leaves us in the wilderness.
Lord,
Watch over @Angelina's mother; show her that she needs water and food, baby steps are fine and you know the route.
Ensure that Angelia gets the support she needs at this terribly difficult time; she needs strength and reassurance.
Keep giving the family the support and the vision to make the best choices; we surrender to you as we know only you knows what is right for us.
In Jesus name,
Amen!
