My mother is finally realizing my father is terminal. I am with them now, and my father is so weak. He is aware and can talk some. I am grateful that my mother is spending a lot of time with him today and is more concerned for his comfort. I am also grateful my brother in law is here helping out. I have yet to break down, and I am so tired from not sleeping well this past week. I would not be surprised if my father does not last out the weekend.

I am so sorry to hear that, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. To be with family at times like this is comforting. I hope everything goes peacefully.
Thanks for this!

(((Leacon))) - I've been following your posts since your father was 1st diagnosed. It's good to know your mother is finally accepting your father is terminal and she's addressing his comfort level. So good to know your brother inlaw is helping. I feel so bad for you and your family. You're all in my thoughts and prayers
