It has been a couple hours since I talked to Patti and if she doesn't call soon, I'll call her. She cried during most our conversation...she keeps saying she doesn't know what to do. I told her that's where hospice will help...they will give her info and help her to make a decision. She still wants to take him home. Ken has had damage from these strokes which have gotten worse since yesterday, which makes me wonder if he has had another. He has no eyesight on his right eye...his speech has gotten so she cannot understand what he is trying to say...his right side is pretty much paralyzed. She is having second thoughts about hospice and I told her I think it is time. His poor body has too many serious problems and is worn out. I just feel so sick for both of them. Patti doesn't know how she can live without him. They have been together for, I think she said, 42 years. I hope and pray in the last couple of hours, she is getting info and lots of help and support. I'll let you know. Thanks all for the prayers...means the world to our dear Patti! |
