Guest guest Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 and group - My mother has been declining rapidly since 2008. In my experience,research, talking to docs and mostly with the help of the group it clearly is a crap shoot to predict when the end will come. Since the disease vacillates so much I have learned to buckle up and let god and the universe speak. The saddest thing is to see my Mother so sick and When I don't think LBD can get worse it does. Generally, unless there are other conditions such as heart disease, cancer etc patients can languish for years especially with good care! Most LBD patients pass from infection, phnemonia or other extenuating circumstance that takes them. I hate to be a downer but the reality is what it is. We all go through these questions with LBD -i've observed that anyone who tells you they don't womder about " how long " especially in later stages of LBD is not on touch with their inner feelings. Thankfully we have each other here. So many others have been kind enough to see me through these questions, so I am glad to share my thoughts and offer whatever I have learned. Hope this helps you in some waty and others struggling with similar questions. Best, Judy -- Sent from Gmail Mobile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
