So glad to hear that he’s gained weight. Make sure you’re taking care of yourself also. This will impact you also. Stay positive and active also walks or whatever helps both of you. Depression can sneak its way in because of this horrible disease. No matter what fight! Like you said one day at a time. Always thinking of you both, wishing you the best keep up the good fight!

Yes, depression is a sneaky beast, pops up at the most inopportune moments. I find list making, chores, cooking, and gardening are good for me to stay focused on the moment.
Also, I go in to work maybe 4 days a week. A routine is always good for me.
One day at a time is all I can handle right now so I stay in the moment.
Thank you for your support.
Getting encouragement from this group really helps. I always perk up when I see a new message.
Wishing you the best as well!
