Increased oxygen in her system will give her a bit more energy, but will work better when her haemoglobin levels increase: all the extra oxygen in the world won't help if there are no little bits of the cells to carry the oxygen bits around.<br /><br />Fear & denial are hard to manage, but so common for people in your situation (I hate that term: it's so impersonal). Tenacity & stubborn-ness can be an asset, but then again, things can be easier if there is acceptance & peace. Hopefully, your mum will get to that point.<br /><br />At least you have been reaching out to keep the ball rolling: don't forget that you need to not put yourself on hold and utilise counselling where possible, even though you've been doing such a great job at keeping all your balls in the air.<br /><br />Love to you, Michelle.
