So sad! :( You are so right we all need to count our blessings and tell everyone we love them daily. Troy and his family are in my thoughts as prayers you as well. Are you ok? I'm sure this is very hard on you. I'm truly sorry. :(

Oh yes he knows, which is what I would think would make it even harder. His brain is FULLY functional but he has no muscle control. He is the one who made this decision.Quote:

He has not eaten, breathed, anything of the sorts on his own in about 8 months or so.
That is so sad, knowing you are going to die. How horrible.
What a truly remarkable man he must be. God bless you TroyQuote:

Oh Donna, thank you so much for thinking of me but as mentioned we truly are blessed. We must be strong to live this thing called life now-a-days. I am fine, well considering anyways, as fine as I can be but I'm counting my belssing here. Very sad & heartbroken but I am fine. It's the less unfortunate we must think of now. :(Quote:

Sad knowing that you will die, but a relief knowing that your struggles will soon be over. The old song
Soon I will be done-a with the troubles of the world
The troubles of the world
The troubles of the world
Soon I will be done-a with the troubles of the world
I'm goin' to be with God
Do go gently into that good night, Troy. Our prayers are with you and your wife and children. My mother died of Lou Gehrig's disease, so I know how hard it is for your loved ones.
Very good advice. Every time something goes wrong in life, I try to remember this and not to whine.Quote:
