Heather, I wish I could offer some words of comfort for you... But, this is not
easy. It is difficult. It's one day at a time, one foot in front of the other.
I hope the ex-BIL doesn't have to be in the picture anymore...


My husband would get confused, too, if he got too tired. I knew at night he was
tired when he handed me the remote. If it was close to ten o'clock, I usually
said it was time for bed...

Losing my husband to this nasty cancer is the hardest thing I will ever do in my
life. I had no idea how much it was going to hurt... It will be two weeks
tomorrow.

Lisa.
