Mom, just in the last day or so, has started sucking her thumb? I know she has tooth issues and stuff, but sucking her thumb? Is she scared or insecure about something? Maybe knowing she will be placed soon? It is so sad.

Was the tooth pulled?

Mom has had a lot going on lately. If she was a thumb sucker as a child, maybe just reverting back to that time.

Sounds like she is self soothing. Stay the course. It will be on to the next phase soon.

She knows she's on her way out soon, so will probably anything to get you worried or discouraged.
STAY FOCUSED & GET HER IN MC, so both of you are safe!
YOU GOT THIS!!!

Dam I'm bawling right now. This is so hard. I am not complaining just putting me feeling out there. Thanks Anxiety for being there for me.

She probably was a thumbs sucker as a child, I'm sure it's a way to self soothe.

At least she knows and understands it. Might make it a tad easier.

I have a gf that sucked her thumb, she says once in a while she will wake up and be sucking her thumb. So no matter how weird it is , I think it's pretty normal

Ok thanks. Just seems strange to watch your mother suck her thumb. This disease is so weird.
