deb10653 Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I haven't been around much lately, Dave entered Hospice House in severe pain last Sunday and the pain just kept increasing. I was praying for him to go and get out of the pain and he finally did yesterday. I will miss him more than I can say. The hospice nurses were so frustrated trying to keep him comfortable with the bone pain, increased almost hourly it seemed. I wish those of you still fighting the best on this journey, I will always wonder if choosing no chemo would have given us more "quality" time but realize second-guessing is not going to bring him back healthy. Thank you for being here and answering questions and just listening! Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shineladysue Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Deb, I am so very sorry you have lost Dave. Please don't second guess the decisions you made. I'm sure you did what you thought was right at the time. No two cases of lung cancer are the same and it would be impossible to know if things would have been different. I'm just so sorry Dave suffered as he did, but I know it is a comfort to you to know that he is no longer in pain. The coming days may not be so easy , but we will be here to lend an understanding ear and friendship. God Bless, Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
