Did your mother in law's situation progress quickly? My husband is still able to do a lot, but compared to last year at this time, he has really declined. I don't know whether to expect to continue at this pace.

Hi @jen26 My MIL progressed erratically. She would have a change, then often plateau for a period, and at some later time change again. The plateau periods varied in length. Some were nice and long.

Her changes (declines) were most often precipitated by some change in her routine.

I know each patient’s journey and disease is unique, so this was just our experiences.

Strength, Courage & Peace
