I just simply don't know where on earth to put this post.

My ex has copd and still lives in our home. He got out of the hospital Sunday and came home on hospice. I am his power of attorney for everything. So far the nurses do not believe he will last until the Holidays. I am so very sad and I don't know how to handle this.

I have witnessed many people passing but this was my husband my lover and my friend. Will I be able to sit with him as I have with many others over the years? I don't know.

I am mad as hell at him because he took too many drugs that caused his lungs to fail even more and throwing our marriage away and now he is dying. Lord knows I love him but I can't help him anymore.

I am so lost.

I'm very sorry to hear about these sad circumstances. I hope your ex will be better than the prognosis he has been given. Considerations and good thoughts going out to both of you.
Thanks for this!

Ex or no ex. Just be there for him. Everyone needs love and support. Make what ever time he has left the best

I can't imagine how heartbreaking this must be, I'm so sorry *hug*
I hope you can take good care of yourself also, and remember you have every right to feel angry and however else you're feeling. You're amazingly strong for what you're doing
