thank u for your kind words...i was scared and felt all alone before we brought hospice in, but they are such a good resource to get info and if i had any questions they did their best to give me the support i needed. just knowing someone was a phone call away was all i needed to give me confidence to deal with what was coming. you are lucky he isn't in too much pain, i wish u the best in these most difficult days.
