An update - we've moved
Friends and Family,
We have had to move Scott to a hospice facility today. While he was getting good care at home, the care he needs the most requires him to be in a facility so that they can give him IV medication and keep him more comfortable. The oral medications were not doing enough to control the pain and anxiety he is experiencing. He's been aware of what is going on most of the time (that started to noticebly decline yesterday and today) and he is scared. He doesn't want to die. It is the most horrible thing I have ever had to witness in my life. We made the right decision to move him and hope to have him feeling more comfortable soon.
We are now on the Hospice floor at Florida Medical Center in Lauderdale Lakes. http://www.fmc-campus.com/en-US/Careers/Pages/default.aspx. As the evil cancer continues to take over, his ability to hold normal conversations is almost gone. I expect that with the increase in medicine, that will continue to be the case. He has been able to say his goodbyes, and we have been able to say ours. We all just want him to be at peace now. Please hope and pray for his comfort and a speedy, peaceful passing.
I will continue to keep everyone posted as best as I can. Thank you to all that have sent their love and support and to the family and friends that are helping us get through this. Sadly, the hard part is nowhere near over - life without Scott will never be the same.
With Love,
Amy

It may be hard to believe, but you are doing the right thing and there WILL BE good to come of it. Believe this. Sending much love your way, Patty
ReplyDeleteAmy I read this with tears and pray that Scott will see his Mom and Aunt Pam soon so his pain will go away. I also pray to God asking him to hold his arms around you giving you even more strength to endure the most difficult time in your lives. Love to you both. David and Amy
