It sounds like the right decision OJ, although I know it might not feel like it.

You're so very brave. Thinking of you and your family x

So sorry oj. Have just caught up on all your threads as my laptop hasn't been working for the last 2 weeks.
Can't imagine what you are going through.
It must be so hard but it sounds like a hospice is the best place for him at the moment. They will be experts in palliative care and will be able to keep him comfortable and hopfully be a great source of support for you and your family.

Oh OJ. Hopefully they will be able to sort his meds out and keep him calmer. Seeing the Steve you know be aggressive as a result of this horrible illness must be devastating.

Thinking of you all. Try and get a good night's sleep tonight.
