(((hugs))) nannachrissie

Thinking of you and your dad, nanachrissy.

SOOP There's nothing like having your hair done for making you feel better!
Thanks again for the love and support.

He was out for the count today, and they are putting him into a higher bed this afternoon, so he will be even more exhausted later.
Despite what the doctor said I can't see him lasting much longer,he is refusing all food now and only having sips of water.
I have to say the carers are really lovely with him especially as it is not a nursing home.
I have been very lucky to have support all round

There is absolutely nothing that makes you feel better than having your hair done, glad you are better soop

Thanks Anagram kind of you to say so.

It's amazing what a bit of TLC can do! Glad you feel better, soop

A lovely friend called and has washed and put my hair in rollers. Feel much better for her upbeat personality and a spot of pampering

He sounds great nanachrissy!

nanachrissy - it's such a difficult and conflicting situation to be in. You don't want to see them deteriorate, but you also don't want to lose them. My heart goes out to you.

nanachrissy More love coming your way...

Hope today is better * nanachrissy* ,I went through this with both parents 5 years ago, it is hard but lovely that you can be with him. Thinking of you x

Good morning nanachrissy. I hope today is kinder to you, after the difficult time you were having yesterday. I remember my dad at this stage, and he had had enough, so just wanted to slip away quietly. He got his wish and was comfortable throughout. It was us, his family, who found it so hard but he had come a long way in his thinking, and of course, we hadn't!

Thank you all for your kindness, it really does lift my heart.
Had a good sleep last night (took a tablet!) so I feel a bit refreshed. My dad is still laughing and joking with the carers in a rambly exhausted sort of way, and I am so proud of him.

Thankful I can share it with you and you all understand

for you nanachrissy, I too remember how hard it was to see my Dad decline, especially as he didn't want to live any longer. However, it was very moving and a privilege to be with him at the very end, quite unreal, but right also, as he had been there at my beginning and I felt it closed the circle. {{hug}}

nanachrissy what a difficult time for you. ((hugs))
