JustMe Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Hi all, My husband is at home with hospice care now. He's hanging in there, happy to be here at home. Sad days. I hope you and your loved ones are doing okay, sorry I don't check in often, I can view the forums on my phone, but can't post apparently. Please take care, I think of several of you often.

Tom Galli Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Jennifer, Thank you for your kind wishes on our health while enduring your husband's plight. My wife and I investigated hospice care when my treatment possibilities waned. Those were difficult times, not for me but for my wife. For her to face my future with only love and consideration of my welfare was one of the kindest acts I've ever experienced. You both are still very much a part of our community. Stay the course.

BridgetO Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Hi Jennifer, I'm glad to hear that your husband is able to be at home with hospice. I've known several people including my mom for whom hospice was a real blessing and helped them find comfort and peace physically and emotionally in their final months and days. I hope it can be so for your husband and for you also. Bridget O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donna G Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Jennifer I am so sorry for your loss. I think I know what you are going through. I am a survivor but my husband, Jay, also got lung cancer and it was very aggressive and it spread rapidly and took him in months also. I miss him so much .

Tom Galli Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Jennifer, It is never easy to lose a husband and to lose one to lung cancer adds mayhem to the burden of loss. Thank you for caring and loving Jay till his end. Stay the course. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
