tjp, you're the second person this week to suggest hospice. I'm going to talk to the doc about it. I am to the point I'd better get my butt to him too. I suffer from high blood pressure and a back problem. I just can't keep doing this alone, I know. Thanks for your support! I just can't lose my mind/health again bec of him. I was hospitilized twice in the same year with serious depression several years ago and have worked so hard to become the stronger person I am, however, I know that I'm suffering symptoms again..forgetfullness, confusion, fatigue, hopelessness....So thanks for being here! Oh, I love your signature quote----I'm gonna post that on my wall! :-)
