I'm sorry that you and your Mom are going through this, Jen.

The best way for you to cope (and not yell at her and only to regret it later) is to take her refusal to go to the hospital for what it is - her right and her choice.

Once you are freed of the burden of responsibility (I should make her go. I am responsible for her.) you'll be able to be calmer and more accepting.

Perhaps this calm state will allow you to try to enjoy your last days/weeks with your Mom instead of stressing about the choices she makes.

Life is precious. When we know that life is almost over, time becomes precious. Use whatever time you have left with her well.

Good luck to you both.
