I just received a call from the new aged care home that mum has made the transfer from St. Joseph's Hospis to Ferndale nursing home. I'll be going to see her shortly after work.
I still have to go back to the hospis and pick up some stuff they forgot to pack. They did enough as it is, especially looking after someone so difficult.
She has become really difficult to deal with. It's very hard watching someone die so slowly.

An update, for the dedicated fan
It's still January. It's still crap so far. :(
My mother has got worse each day. She's currently in a Hospis but will be moved to an old age home (Nursing home) tomorrow. It's funny. When my brother died about three years ago. It was all of a sudden. I grieved with the loses in my own little way. But in comparison, watching my mother go through what she is going through.... if she were a horse or a dog it would be inhumane to keep her living.
I know this sounds harsh, but deep down I wish she would just finally pass on. Because that way she will be void of all the pain she is feeling. All the suffering she is going through, emotionally, physically and psychologically.

Crap, Crap, Crap, Crap and more Crap
It's been a shitty past three months.
Mum hasn't been doing too well. I've missed out on a lot of opportunities. I miss seeing my mates. Christmas and New Years was okay. But not brilliant. I wanted this one to be brilliant.
Went to a few gigs before the end of the year. I've started to ride my bicycle again. I hope I keep that up :)
I need a holiday. Time off work. Time away on my own.
Cheers

whoops...
I forgot I had a blog.
Updates: Broken toe, cut the grass, work is good, car is fixed, mum isn't doing so well, I've had enough sleep but I feel more tired then ever, I went out on Saturday night and had fun, Gigantour was a disappointment - had more fun in the entry outside.
enjoy

What a shit week! Literally
I get a stomach bug that sends me to the porcelain thrown all week. I'm blogging from there as we speak... no just kidding. ;)
My mother ends up hospitalised because her cancer has got out of hand again, and we have just discovered that she has another form of cancer in her lower back that cannot be cured but luckily, is easily manageable. :\ Not great news, but good news I guess.
To top it all off, she called me yesterday saying that she's been discharged from hospital and will wait for me to pick her up at 5:30 in the afternoon.

Two weekends in a row!
This was the weekend after my birthday (long) weekend. I went down to Wollongong with Sash. We hung out with Ben.
Ben had this idea to go to the Oktoberfest celebrations. At first I wasn't keen, but then we got there, and I was right into it.

Massive!
Geez, I haven't posted anything in a while.
Since Friday I've been flat chat all long weekend. Friday was my birthday, so I left work just a little early. When I got home, I quickly set up my backyard to resemble a party scene.
