Sleep deprivation
Finally we convinced mom to take a sleeping pill. For those who raised kids: sleep deprivation when baby cries is manageable when:
- you are 20something or 30something
- sooner or later the baby will be a silent toddler
Yet moms sleep deprivation could only become worse as:
- she is 70 something
- the metastatic liver cancer will only get worse
So it’s me and bro looking after father this night, me first so when tomorrow no update, it’s because I am sleeping and mom has made finally good use from us 🙂
Father is asleep already and the saliva sounds are not really saliva, but deeper in the lungs (we wouldn’t be surprised that the primary cancer is a lung cancer), so nothing can be done about that. Yet the sound is so alarming you wake up from it: and that must have been every second for mom. I will find out soonest enough.
