oj i have only just seen this but wanted to say Steve will be so well cared for, and it will enable you to have a well deserved rest,You have been amazing all the way through.I have experience of a hospice [ although it was a childrens one] and the staff were brilliant and it sounds strange but it was a really happy place.I hope Steve can find some kind of peace there.

OJ. Make the most of this time to catch up on some "you" time. It must be very tiring for you even though I know we all want to do everything we can for our families at all times. Thoughts are with you all. xx

I'm thinking of you, Steve and the family, OJ.

Hi OJ
Difficult decision. Hope you have some proper sleep and when Steve comes back home you' be there for him and the kids.
If there is anything I can do pl let me know!

PaulaYatesbiggestFan · 12/02/2008 00:35

oj - if you can still do such a good mumsnet 'cross out' on half a bottle of rum - you are doing well!

onlyjoking9329 · 12/02/2008 02:01

I know I should be asleep now but finding it hard I suppose I am that used to be woken at this time of morning. I hope Steve is asleep.

i'm not surprised you can't sleep, even though you must need it. Sometimes changing location can help, even if it's to the sofa...
