Thank you for all your information. Lainy, I would like a copy of your what to expect when the end is near. I don’t know how to email you. Hospice comes tomorrow for an evaluation. I was hoping for some specific info from them. LadyLinden, my husband seems to be in the same place you are in. He has lymph node matastasis also. My husband and I both believe that God is in control and that we will go to heaven when we pass. Our faith sustains us. I have learned to live with the “one day at a time” mantra since his first stroke. I was hoping we would have some good days left. We wanted to visit our daughter, her husband and our granddaughter in Florida in March, but I don’t think that is going to happen. We have been married over 40 years and I am hoping for some good days. Ironic, huh? We don’t appreciate our good days when we are having them!
