Yes I too dont sleep much! can't shut my brain off. You are soo correct in saying that our husbands are such fighters and how they keep it together and keep fighting every day..can't even imagine how they do it!!! Your son a firefighter...that sooo awesome....and he came soo close! They say things happen for a reason, and that job was not meant for him! I do hope his dad gets to see him in uniform soon! How is hubby doing these days. You say he's at home....is he eating/drinking? You say he's confused...how...what do u do for him?
My aunt for her final month was put in a hospice. Soooo beautiful!, very peaceful and reassuring for her kids at that time aged 34 and 36.
she stopped talking/communicating with us final month....then gradually went into a coma for the final 2 weeks.... So hard to wAtch er like this.... But her care was awesome! so she truly looked peaceful!
Do ou have home care coming to your house to help out!? We do...while I am at work they come every day and make lunch for him! I hope you have help....you need to take care of yourself too!, and with homecare, they can help you manage hubby at home as long as possible!!
My boy is very, very close to his dad...hubby fell about 2 months ago and was admitted for about a week...dehydration/ not eating etc...our son had a hard time with his and our daughter at that time just cried and cried.. That was an extremely hard time for me..have to be strong for hubby and explain and be pisitive for kids!! Know when I bring up the future with my kids... My son gets very quiet and my daughter cries all the time in school...so I don't talk much about it!!
Your dear friend that you lost, Nadine, that is soo sad... But maybe she put us together and we have this site to help each other!!
