Eshwar, I am deeply sorry that your father is having to weigh the options of treating or not treating. I can only imagine how painful this decision must be for your father, for you, and for your family.

I'll keep you and your father in my thoughts for peace with whatever is the decision.

You are an amazing caregiver. Your father is blessed to have your help and love to see him through it all. I hope you take comfort in knowing you made a big difference in the quality of his care and his life.

Sending a hug,
Sandy
