Not selfish at all. She is your mother and you love her. Her health is failing and you don’t know if you’ll have another ten minutes or ten years of her in your life. Your husband should be more understanding and supporting. He should be there for you and her. Maybe he has his own fears in facing sickness and death. Maybe it’s just hard for him to deal with it, but he should be supportive and not look at your time with her as a conflict. Just as another challenge we all face in life. One that should be met by both of you. Good luck.
