He had a severe stroke and his brain has swelled. He is going to die. He has a 1% chance. Even if he lived he wouldn't be able to feed himself or talk.

Hello xxxispillcoffeexxx,

You are living such a difficult thing.

Have you any family near of you or someone who you can talk to about that?

Do you have a T or a Pdoc?

I'm so sorry. Life stinks at times especially when your grandpa is not doing well. I know he probably would not want to live that way either. I know I would not. He will miss you very much!...And if it be his choice he would not want to leave you either.

Thinking of you and your grandfather this evening!!

I am so sorry, coffee.

Have they put a stint into his brain to relieve the pressure from the swelling? I hope so! I know that taking preventative measures may seem pointless at this point, but I have cared for many wonderful people who had less abilities & they did still find some enjoyment in living life. It isn't easy to accept these changes in life, but it does help a person gain an easier time accepting the end when it does come.

Gentle hugs to you and your family ~ you are in my thoughts.
