Have your family discussed his options with him? Maybe it is time to manage a peaceful end rather than a painful fight?
I know you are and I’m so appreciative.
He’s not brilliant, but still makes me belly laugh when he’s canny. xx
Yep, we have, and that’s what we want

I know, it’s heartbreaking. I went through it with my nana, it still upsets me, I try to remember the good days we had.

That's good that you have all agreed. Is he coming home then?
I’m doing that everyday, he chased me yesterday said “You’ve been here all bloody day” and today he asked if there wasn’t a long journey I could go on to pick something up for him
Amazing how he wakes up when I’m there, and how when I go he says “you be careful pet”
He’s home x
Unfortunately, a part of life is watching your parents die. I lost both to cancer. Enjoy every last moment you get with them because when they're gone you'll wish you did.
And take lots of videos/photos. I found a video of me mar online the other day and to see her talking and walking about after being gone for 18 years left me a quivering wreck. I cried my f***ing eyes out, and I loved every last tear.
Chin up, Janey. I hope your old man has an easy passage to the old Stadium of Light in the sky.

My heart goes out to you and your family pet
It’s an awful thing to go through, I know how it feels
I was really scared for me mam but she was so strong through it all it was amazing to see her. It broke my heart when t came to the end but she went out on her terms with great dignity, I miss her so much still

Just sit with him and give him kisses, rub moisturiser into his hands and feet. Gentle touches and kisses as many as you can x
Exactly how I’m feeling at the minute, and how he, like your mam was. xx
It is shit Janey. No doubt. And it’s tough.I’m doing that everyday, he chased me yesterday said “You’ve been here all bloody day” and today he asked if there wasn’t a long journey I could go on to pick something up for him

But take some consolation in the fact he knows who you are and you can talk to him while you’re going through this.
At the end, me mam had Alzheimer’s as well as cancer which made it doubly shit.

Thoughts with you, Janey. Words don't really help, but stay strong lass.
I’m spending every minute I can with him and treasuring every minute too. xx
Aww that must have been so tough for you
xxhe definitely knows who I am which is why he keeps chasing me
Words and thoughts do help xx
