Ann, I'm sorry you had to go through this. Regardless of what that report says it won't explain why. Your Mom was fortunate to live such a long life. If you asked me 20 years ago if I would take 84 I'd of signed right then. I witnessed a similar event with my Dad he too was 84. In his case it was suspected lymphoma but they didn't know till they started testing. That put a strain on him, eventually he got a blood infection. He beat that but then they did more tests and did find a bad lymph node to make the diagnosis but that didn't cause his death he just nose dived after the test. One thing after the other. When we reach a certain age our body just can't fight infections and the MDS combined with her other issues at that age triggered a series of events. I'm sorry. Think about this though. I don't know how old you are but if someone asked you today to sign a note guaranteeing you 84 would you take it?
All the best to you
