Have the doctors give any sort of a prognosis. They never gave us any. But I knew he didn't have much time left. He was "OK" for the first month after he was diagnosed. He couldn't walk much and mostly stayed in bed but he was still able to function a bit and talk to me which I enjoyed. But the last six weeks or so he was bedridden which was hard for me to see. He always knew who I was up until the last minute which was comforting. I stayed with him until the very end. He was always afraid of dying alone. I am curious how the things MD Anderson might do for your husband will work. Hopefully they can extend his life and quality of life for a while.
