Mom isn't exactly dying but at 100 you expect it at any time. It is stressful, and sad that she doesn't have her mind so much of the time.
That is so sad that your mom died when you were four. So sorry. No little child should lose their mom so early. Did she pass away at home with a long illness? Were you the baby? It makes a big difference in how it affects children. I don't feel like I was that close to my mom when I was little - my grandmother was more like the mother to me. I slept in her room with her and felt very close to her but she died when I was 3 1/2 and I think it has affected me very deeply all my life.
I think if my mom could talk that is what she would say for sure, and I do like to think maybe the dream was real on a deeper level too. Dave is a wonderful man - I am so lucky he is my partner in this (and everything!).

And Dave is a wonderful man to look after your mum so that you could go out. Little breaks would certainly help you to take care of her overall.
