He does need to take care of his teeth or they will be gone soon. We have all been there. Everything about this really sucks. Even after the treatment we are not "cured". There are going to be daily things that will need to be done to keep what we have left and to reduce the chances of the beast coming back. I will tell you there isn't a day that goes by that I am thankful to still be a part of this world. There is a space that does exist and it will be up to you and your husband to find. The hacking will subside eventually. Stay strong and lean on your friends, family and us.
