Re: A slow decline


Nothing I can say really, except I'm still praying, and sending (((hugs))); this is so hard and you've been incredibly strong.

Re: A slow decline


*holds close* Oh Tink... it's all so difficult for you - and it sounds like you've really been there, being strong for everyone. You're right - it's time for you to take a break.

*tops up the hug pile*

Quite agree with this (((((hugs)))))

Re: A slow decline


Thanks, everyone.
Broached the subject a lot more delicately to his parents and they've been very understanding so I'm happy about that, they took it very well.
In other news, my Dad's kidneys are going downhill despite his efforts. When will things be peaceful?

Re: A slow decline


Don't know what to say Tinks, ..except my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.

It sounds like you've got a bit more support from his parents, good! That's a step forward. There's only so much even the strongest of person's can take
