My mum is 80 years old and has chosen to become bed bound after my sister died unexpectedly. She has not left bed at all in 5 weeks and is in hospital. They have now said that due to her very limited eating and drinking and muscle wastage, it is unlikely she will be able to or indeed want to ever leave bed again. She was given some IV fluids at first, but nothing now. This is heartbreaking for our family. Is this likely to have an impact on her mortality, even though she is currently in very good physical health? If so, how much longer is she likely to live?
