Anne ,thank you so much for your comments. You are correct. I do try to be strong and hide my emotions in front of my wife, so she doesn't get upset. We have had couple of crys together, before hospice was brought in. So it's been awhile. I Love that, be so full of sorrow there's no room for happiness. I will be 60 this month. This is not what I expected. My wife has always been the caretaker when she was able. I'm trying to do the right thing. I don't get to hangout with her as much as I want to. She is a smoker and I had a lung removed a couple of years ago. So I have to retreat to the bedroom if she smokes I'm used to that but when you're trying to spend what time you have left getting even closer. It hurts a little when she lights up to chase me out. I'm trying to reunite her with her family, at least her sisters . I don't if I should just have them come over with out her blessing or what. I could use a little advice on that. I'm not thinking real clear. I really appreciate your response. Thank you, Jeff.
