I think it's a good idea. I wish I could have known what to tell my Uncle to expect when my Aunt chose to do nothing after her recurrence diagnosis. When Aunt Ro was really doing poorly and was obviously getting sicker with each passing week, I didn't post at all because I didn't want to disturb the positive attitude of those who were in the fight. I think it would be a good idea though. It would help to inform caregivers and families as to what to expect. It would also gived loved ones somewhere to talk about the emotional stress of watching someone fade away. For me, I ended up not talking about it with anyone and when Aunt Ro finally passed, I was shell shocked, almost speechless, cried and was thoroughly sick for three days straight.

The families could use the support too.
