Mom lives with my husband and I and she sleeps so much. Goes to bed at 9pm and not up until almost noon. I asked if she's feeling ok and say she does and when I tell her it's noon and she's just eating breakfast, she just shrugs her shoulder as to say, "whatever". Done with breakfast and starts reading the paper and falls a sleep again in her chair. Should I be concerned or what? I have to make doctor, nail and hair appointments in the afternoon so that I don't have to keep fighting her to get moving so we can be on time for the appts.
In the final two months she was sleeping till about 10 or 11 am
In the final weeks she was sleeping from 4pm till noon
It got harder and harder to get food into her...she was sleeping more than 22 hours a day when she was put on hospice...
Finally...she never really woke up much at all.
My parents use to brag that they only needed 6 hours of sleep and were up with the roosters. But they never added in the nap they took after breakfast, the nap after lunch, the nap before dinner, and the nap after dinner :P
