Hi Tina,
Your brother is very fortunate to have YOU on his team. Caring for a PALS should not be a one-person job. My family bailed (I have no kids, just nieces and nephews and an 81-year old brother) so anytime a family pulls together or, at least offers to help, tugs on a big heart string of mine. I'm glad you're reaching out to his wife. As your brother's needs become more, she will appreciate your willingness to help.
I live in Daytona Beach so I'm not far from Winter Haven.
Everyone here is so kind and generous with their information and time. People like Mike, Laurie, Steph and Tillie (and others) are giving the greatest gift they can by staying here and helping us. I don't know if I'd have the strength or even the desire after losing my spouse to ALS.
It does help to break up your posts into paragraphs.
We're here to help in any way we can.
