Re: Calling hospice tomorrow

Glad to hear that Dick now has O2 at home and that Hospice is coming on board. Someone else here mentioned fast acting liquid Morphine. I would imagine the hospice nurse will discuss this with you if you don't already have some. When my husband went on O2 he was also given some liquid morphine. We w...

Re: At that point: clinical trial or hospice

Kathleen, So sorry to hear this news. My advice is to definitely bring your daughter home. I know my Dennis was never happier than when surrounded by all of his kiddos. My heart goes out to you and your family. I hope that Dick can be made as comfortable and painfree as possible and that your family...

Re: mCRC STAGE IV OR RECURRENT PATIENTS thread - ONGOING

Jeanette, I am not a doctor so first thing I will say is to discuss your particular case with your doctor, but I agree with Bev. The only way I see that slapping would help you is if you had apnea (lapses in breathing). If you are experiensing respiratory distress and your O2 sats are low due to lun...

Re: NEW THREAD FOR LOVED ONES LEFT BEHIND ONGOING

SMR, Wow. That IS interesting. Would you mind sharing the name of the song? I would love to hear more of your stories.

Re: Discussions about Death

So I am going to ramble a bit. Included is an account of my husbands last days and death. This past Thanksgiving, one of my husband's brothers , his two sisters (from out of state) and all of 5 our children spent the holiday together.

Re: NEW THREAD FOR LOVED ONES LEFT BEHIND ONGOING

SMR, Wow, that is interesting that only that particular song loaded. I would love it if your would share more of your stories.

I recently had a dream that Dennis was still alive but was away somewhere and I kept waiting for him to come home but he never did.
