As a mother, I think your mom loves you so much that she doesnt want to trouble you by seeing her sick. She probably wants you to remember her as the person she used to be before she was sick. It must be a terrible time for everyone in your family. I can just imagine what is going thru your mother's head right now. She must be suffering so much. Hopefully she moves past this phase quickly and allows you to be close with her again soon. Prayers to everyone involved.
