My hubby was told it's too late for him to get a feeding tube; his breathing is too poorly at this stage. So, then, what now for him? Does he get MAID? Get pneumonia and pass that way? Is it more kind to not have one more thing that is the difference between life and death?
When my hubby was told this, I dont think it registered fully with him, as he just shrugged his shoulders. Honestly, though, his breathing is so bad and he's pretty much a quadriplegic. We are going down to Palm Desert from September 21 until January 7th. If the time ahead of him is not much more, then I'd like to make the next few months special for him. I'm not sure the point of this post, but given this information, I wonder what his prognosis is? We just spent an hour getting phlegm up and we're still not done. That's not good either. I'm tired
