    End is near.

    Well, my dad is, I think well into the dying process. He went from talking normal on Friday to talking to people with an imaginary phone in or day. Still knows us but very delerious, restless and seeing things we don't. Talking a lot about the past. It's almost 15 mos since he was diagnosed. I took yesterday and probably rest of week off to be there for mom and dad too. All 3 of us kids stayed here last night so mom could get some much needed sleep. Dad just rambled all night long. So sad. We've been trying to tell him it's ok if he needs "to go ". But no answer yet. The nurse was here today said his oxygen is very low.
    Will keep everyone posted.

    Sue
    It is always a blessing when a family can hold together during these difficult times. I hope for a cure so no one else has to go through what you and your family are going through.
