Dh very ill, will be going into the hospice on Wednesday

[Blandmum]

Dh is now very poorly. He is very thin, has no appetite, sleeps most of the day and is up most of the night.

The Macmillan nurse visited today and has told him to stay in bed, and he will have a bed in the hospice on Wednesday.

I don't know if this is 'it'. but he is getting very ill very quickly. At least he got to do his balloon ride yesterday, and got the formal news of his MBE a little while ago.

We have been lucky to have the extra time that we have had, and we have built some fine memories, but this is very hard. He is such a good man and doesn't deserve this. I don't know if I can post updates, I may well just use MN as a distraction.

sorry to hear this - I don't thik we've ever actually had a "conversation" on mumsnet, but thinking of you and your family at this time.

So very sorry. Thinking of you all.

so sorry to hear this
wishing you all strength and peace
