This morning I'm taking him to one hospital for imaging to check for shrinkage or spread of cancer. Then we go to a different hospital (VA) for bloodwork. I have no attendant today. Physically lifting him is getting tough. I hope a nursing home can accept him early next week. His adult kids are encouraging me to take advantage of this opportunity for a break.

He and I got irritated with each other last evening. Maybe I will find myself happier when he is in the nursing home. It's possible I may decide to request a permanent bed for him.
