As I read that post I kept saying yes to each suggestion. Now is the time to make everything as comfortable as possible. Don't forget to take advantage of offers of help from family and friends. Doing so will provide much needed assistance. Take care of yourself also as this is an extremely stressful and tiring time for the caregiver too. So glad to hear Mike had put on some weight and is keeping his nutrition up. This will help a lot down the road. Hoping to hear from you soon.
