Hi @joey333 I am Scott and it is nice to e-meet you here. Welcome to Mayo Connect. I am sorry to read of your husband’s diagnosis. It’s a tough one for sure. I was drawn to Connect for the support it offered me during the toughest of my caregiving days. It offered me comfort and assistance and I hope you find the same.

One of the early things I did was work with my wife to get the HIPPA forms filled out so our adult children and I could speak directly with her medical team. It was a significant help and alliviated a bunch of stress.

Is this something you think might help you?

Hi, Scott! It is a pleasure to meet you. : ) Yes, I think that would be helpful for me to do at this time, I think just for me and not the children at this point in time. I was looking at Mayo's website last evening and saw that it is possible that it could stay the same, improve or even go away? Does this happen very often?
