Many prayers for your Dad Sandie.

Wow, I am in tears at how long this thread of good wishes has become! Thanks so much for your kind thoughts, everyone.

Dad will come home Sunday morning. He is incontinent, and can no longer walk or even stand. They have run tests and found nothing new, so conclude this is all part of the normal process of the Alzheimer's. They don't hold much hope for improvement for him. They will arrange for some VNA services (Visiting Nurse), to include, nurse, CNA to help him bath and dress, and also some physical therapy.

I wish the news were better.

Sandie - we all wish that the news was better. Alzheimer's is such a cruel disease.

You and Dad are still in my prayers.

{{{{hugs}}}} Sandy. I have watched my dad and sister decline with two chronic illnesses, and it is almost indescribable to put into words. Frustration, desperation and tears are some of what I remember.

I hope your dad gets the best care, and that the home care will give you some breathing space for yourself.

Prayers for your dad and for you.

Sending you the best wishes, may all be as you wish for your dad.

I wish that the news were better, too, Sandie. I'm really sorry. We'll prop you up whenever you need it as best we can. Keep the faythe.
