[quote=Anonymous]I am so sorry. I went through this with my dad. If anything I learned it’s so unpredictable. They can seem fine and then take a turn very quickly. We were in and out of the hospital. Sometimes the opposite - they do better much longer than anyone thought. I made sure to say “I love you everyday” and just be present. My dad didn’t want to talk about his condition or being treated like a cancer patient. He said “when people find out your diagnosis that’s all they see”. He preferred to hear about his grandkids and our lives and try to live as normally as possible. He did not want to die on a hospital and we pulled strings to get him home before. I’m so glad we were able to do that. I’m so sorry, OP.[/quote]
