Today went better - we got a lot of Dad's stuff sorted just the two of us at his
own pace. Next time BIL opens his big mouth and gets pushy I'll just tell him
nicely to slow down a bit and let Dad call the shots. I don't want to see Dad
all confused again because he was pushed around by BIL.
Two weeks now - you will get through the rain Lisa - you are strong and you
are in my prayers.

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.
