Hello Dana and Walter
I have been away for a couple of weeks and only now catching up on everything. What can you expect now..... First of all look into Iressa, see if the docs can get it for you. Tell the rest of the family.... get a video camera and get Walter and you on tape. Please make sure that his will is up to date......
If it has gone to his brain, be prepared for mood swings and changes, depending on where the tumours are. You will be given a hospice councillor and possable more access into the hospice situation. This will be a god send for you, make sure that you pick nurses that you and Walter like, do not get railroaded.
This is going to be a road that is unlike anything you have ever travelled before. You will become stronger through it, I promise. You and Walter will become closer together...... I think it adds about 50 yrs of marriage at once.....Treasure each day, eat icecream everyday if that gives memories to keep, rent all the movies you have ever wanted to watch together. Keep posting here, we are here to help you.
Love
Leisa
