[quote=Anonymous]Hi - recently just found out one of my parents (who is 80) is terminal. Doctor indicated they may live several more years, but the damage is irreversible. I would be very shocked if they make it another 6 to 12 months given personality and overall health. From what I have read, the journey from here can vary and lot by individual and it likely won’t be a pleasant way to go. The diagnosis isn’t shocking, shocking, but it is. Our family definitely doesn’t have an issue saying “I love you”, but that is about as deep as emotional discussions go. Looking for any and all tips to get through this from a logistical and/or emotional perspective. I am very much a “fixer” and aside from optimizing the time left (particularly from a comfort perspective), there isn’t much to fix. [/quote]
