And The Rollercoaster Continues

Having to take care of and watch a love one deteriorating before your eyes is extremely painful.
I have experienced it three times mother,father,mother in law.
Watching your spouse or significant other has to be on another scale.

Sister is still on rollercoaster of wanting him one more day and just wanting him to be out of pain.
All hopes of a recovery long gone.

On the pain meds he sleeps as they wear off he is troubled,agitated, sometimes, and mostly confused.

Glimpses of the old Greg come out occasionally when he manges to say something coherent and what a false hope it sometimes brings!

This cancer is a monster.

Honey you're in my prayers and everyone involved. My heart so goes out to you. I just want to cry for you and your family. My sister's going through the same thing with her husband and it's just so sad. He has cancer as well and he's just barely making it and he knows he's deteriorating. It's just so sad to watch. He's wanting to give up. I pray that God will give you peace and comfort during this time. I sure wish there was something we could help you with. You are both and all loved. Please feel free to talk about it with us anytime you want. We may not have the answers but we can sure pray for you and listen because we do care and love you and your family. I will keep you in my prayers. ❤❤❤ Lots of hugs. You're not alone. God is with you and so are we. I pray that will bring comfort to you.

@Justmeraeagain Anytime. And if you're not a person that wants to talk about things that are spiritual that's okay too. I won't mention a thing. I'm just here to be your friend and help you get through, okay? You can lean on me and tell me what's hurting you and I will listen. I may not have all the answers and I'm sure I don't, but I'm a good listener. That I can do.
