@memoriestomoments I think this post is incredible. The information you gave here is so valuable to any stage of this. As it's a reminder of keeping them active and stimulated as long as we can. It reinforces those "memories to moments" you described in an earlier post when I first joined this site. When I think of Stage 5, I think of almost the end, yet you put in a very different light of someone who still has a long time to live and doing it happily.
Thank you for this post.
Best, Karla

Dear @kjc48
Thank you for your always-supportive comments on this post and so many others. You are so right that these concepts apply throughout the stages. We even had light and beautiful times throughout the two months of hospice, during which he declined so surprisingly quickly.
Having read a number of your posts, you embody a positive, inquisitive and activist approach. I am sure that it will make both your and your husband's experiences so much better. But also, like me, you will feel great peace at the end: Not because a burden has been lifted from our shoulders but because we did everything we could do and it made such a difference.
