Need your prayers, good karma, strong thoughts, friends -
My father-in-law is on his way by ambulance to the hospital and I'll be following shortly. He's 86, Stage 3 Alzheimers, and I've been his caregiver for 6 years. I don't want to lose him yet.

Love you, DU -

7. Go do what you have to do and know you always have a friend in DU.
Sometimes one of the things that lets us know we are alive is the pain
we all have to got through.

Hope it works out for you.

9. You're in a difficult spot. Best wishes.
Been there, and it sucks. Just do what you believe is right, but don't beat yourself up in the event that problems develop beyond your control.

17. Alzheimer's took my mom.. It was many years before she passed.
It's tough to lose someone, even though they lost you many years ago.

Hang in there.

22. Thank you all so much, my dearest friends -
I'm just home on a quick run to feed kitties and grab Dale (my FIL) some warm jammies and socks; he's always so cold. No word on whether he must be admitted yet.

Your kindness brings tears to my eyes and warmth to my heart. Thank you. :hug:

26. He's stable - they don't quite know what's happening yet -
doing blood work, etc. As he has heart disease and diet-controlled diabetes, anything's possible at this point. They will keep him at least overnight and will let us know if his condition worsens.

If it doesn't, I'll credit DU. Thank you so much :hug::loveya::hug:
