My David has been very hummbled by this. He was a very strong hard working He now is exhausted and at times very withdrawn.

Do his friends visit. Don't ask his permission ask them to stop by and see him. Keeping people outside of us seems to help my Davids spirits. He gets at times very non talkative. just stares at TV. Do what ever you can to get him up out for a small walk a drive in the car. Take a different route home from your next appointment. If he gets tired he will sleep. I am fortunate we live in FL and a short drive even across one the many bridges crossing he gulf will bring a light to him. He may be tired truly after that but the glimmer gets brighter and brighter each Time. The American cancer center publishes a book clled Caregiving and gives some fabulous information. I got it because I am particiating in a caregiver study. Keep him active in his home care.

SIt and just hold his hand...Rub his feet conversation is not always what is needed...

I feel for you as I have felt many days myself for my David during this. We strive so hard not to let the person they were get lost in all this.
