    Think this is it.

    My husband has bacterial pneumonia. He was looking better, but has taken a turn for the worse. I have been non stop nursing him for 4 days. He told me today on his phone that he is done. I am in dispair.. yet do not want him to suffer either. Today was rough, his family, who have never even...

    A question about bulbar onset.

    My husband has been slurring his words, coughing, and choking. The speech he noticed in July, I didn't notice it until October. It is not so bad in the morning.
