Well, thanks so much to everyone for answering my questions. I am now back home. I truly enjoy my visit with my brother. He and his wife was so happy that I stay the week. My sister in law was able to get some rest and some time to herself. I plan on going back before the end of year. My brother is in very good spirits in spite of his illness. I guess it is really true that your attitude means a lot in a illness. His voice is pretty good but getting a little weaker. The speech therapist is working on "banking the words in a computer" so he can use a computer to talk.
The only frustration is trying to deal with the DME company. My sister in law have been trying to get a part put on my brother wheel chair since June. She has been calling them weekly. I told her she may need to write a letter or call Medicare since Medicare pays for power wheel chair.
I do plan on letting my sister in law know about this forum as well. I am considering looking for a in person support group for myself as well. As with all type of diseases, this disease suck as well.
Thanks again
