Hi,
Mom did not recover well from the severe dementia symptoms she had after hip surgery (blood clot on lungs etc.).She cannot rehabilitate due to dementia. 3 doctors have said she has 6 months or less to live. She goes into a hospice home today. I've done my best over the past three years taking care of her by myself and there is still more to do after it ends. The feelings are so strange now. I've gone from chaotic mode and living on the edge caring for my mom 24/7 to complete quietness in this house. At some point in this journey will I ever again be able to embrace calmness/quietness?

You will grieve. You will heal. You will adjust and most likely feel relieved.
Wishing you peace as you continue on this difficult journey.
