Well they have increased his meds since they have been coming. They have increased his morphine and now they have increased his xanax, but if a person does not use them as directed, they can stop giving them any at all. Joe always takes more than the daily amt prescribed bccause he wants to be high. They can't really tell if the meds are helping him or not if he does not take them the right way. I understand where they are coming from. He always tells them that he is not in pain so they figure that he does not need an increase. But after I called them yesterday, they did decide to increase his xanax. I came home for doing some shopping for him, and he is acting like he is high. Either he took too many of his meds already (just got them yesterday) or he had someone bring him something today while I was gone. His behavior changes from day to day. He is hard to deal with. But I am doing my best. I know and he knows that he is dying and I know he is scared. It just breaks my heart to see him this way. I pray that God will take him quickly and painlessly. But His will be done.
