Update on fil: They can call in Hospice at any time now, he isn't eating or taking his meds

[Calico]

he isn't eating or taking his meds. and is combative. My mil is still going to CO this weekend and will come back if need be, my bil is staying in town instead of going away like he had planned, my fil's dd is coming from Texas to stay with him at the Nursing home while my mil is away.

How strong can we be if we must endure 2 deaths in less than a year? At least this one is a more local for us, different state but within a hour and half drive for us. I don't know what to ask for prayer for, for him to hold on till my mil returns from CO. or for it to happen quicker either forcing her not to go (but she needs to be with her son,(the one talked about below) also talk about being pulled in too many directions) or getting her to CO only to have to return earlier than planned. sigh.

I wish that the boys could go see their grandfather one last time but I fear that he isn't in a right frame of mind to know who they are.

Also my bil (the one with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma is going into the hospital today to start chemo for his stem cell transplant. He had a couple of setbacks (reaction to a medication and a chest port infection). So pray that this is it and that all will go well from now on. He will be in the hospital for at least 3 weeks maybe longer.



Thanks for letting me pour my thoughts out.

My heart goes out to you. As far as what to ask for in prayer? When I'm torn I ask for peace for all concerned. Thats it... Just Peace for all concerned.

I am a home care Hospice Volunteer so I see and experience your familys pain everyday. It is a blessing that you are near to loved ones. The simple act of visiting or calling truly does make your suffering ones feel calmer and less afraid.
Blessings to you.
