Less than one minute read time.

Doesn't look like we will be getting home at all now. Bert has a Temp again, perhaps a chest infection as they say his chest sounds very crackly. He is passing so much blood. It is so heartbreaking to watch the man you love in such pain and be completely helpless, the most I can do is wet his lips for him and just be here. I am losing track of the days myself now.

He is hallucinating almost all the time, even when he does not need his morphine. at least he is a lot calmer than he was last week.

This disease is so cruel you would not watch an animal suffer in this way.

They are doing as much as possible to keep him comfortable which is all they can do

Love Teri

    I totally agree with you Teri. I did not have to watch Colin suffer for long but I was practically begging them to help him at the end.

    I so wish I could help you, the terrible thing is when this is all over you are still left with the thoughts and images but at least you will know Bert is no longer suffering. All you can do now is hold and love him and hope he is soon out of pain.

    Be strong Teri, take some deep, deep breaths sending you love and hugs, Lesley xx

    Oh Teri -There are no words that can be said really. I went through it with my mother so I know exactly what you are going through and you have my very very best wishes.

    Love
