How I wish I could say YES...a restful night....I feel like a jack-in-the-box.....last night it was 6 times I got up to check on my husband. The hospice nurse I called the other night did help me. ....waiting for her visit today. He has developed an open sore top of his butt....I have Zinc Paste I have been using...want the nurse to check it out today.
I am sorry if I am complaining....I don't wish to do that....just saying how it is! And it does help to "get it out". Thanks

I am so sorry that last night was also difficult, @turtle115. You are working so hard to keep your husband comfortable. I'm sure that he appreciates your efforts even if he cannot express them now.

I understand your need to "get it out." That is why Connect is here. We want everyone to be able to express what is going on and be supported.

Will you post again after the hospice nurse visits?
