Oh, I feel for you. I know how awful and heartbreaking it is to watch your mother fail and suffer, and your situation is particularly difficult.
May you find the inner strength enough to share some of it with your mother.
The best thing you can do is tell her how much you love her and how much she has meant to you and inspired you. Tell her repeatedly, no matter how it might make you both cry, this is your time to let her know.
I will send steadying vibes your way.
One idea- maybe you can set up a simple to use speaker phone for her while you are there, so she can talk to you without having to hold the phone up all the time. Holding the phone up to her head was painful for my mother as well during a portion of her failing health. Perhaps do a search for phones geared towards seniors?
