How nice of you! Thank you! We know God is there for us and lately, we've had quite a few prayers answered regarding this situation. We did get Hospice resources from both the doctor and the Fire Dept. We will use them when it becomes necessary. Until then, it's just me and my husband. Ours is a second marriage. I haven't seen or heard from my son in 30 years and Ed's sons haven't called in about 5 years. Father's Day came and went without any contact. For that matter, so did Mother's Day for me. However, I took care of my mother for 10 years. She had a similar situation: Pulmonary Emphysema with 12% of her lungs functioning, bleeding ulcers and oxygen 24 hours. So, I'm experienced with this kind of situation. It gets a little tiring but my husband helps in any way that he can.
Thanks for the kind words!
