My dad has been ill with Lewy Body Disease for over a decade. It's an awful disease, a combination of Parkinsons and Alzheimer's. He has been in a nursing home for six years. No quality of life. He can't move, speak or do anything for himself.
He was just moved to hospice again. (He has been given his last rites three times in six years). He is starting to have a hard time breathing and eating. It is breaking my heart that he is going through this pain. An awful way to die. I wish there was something I could do for him.
Thanks all. I am headed to visit him next week. It's such a hideous disease that has been eating away at him for a decade. It's a terrible way to suffer. I wish I could ease his pain.
Read a book aloud, so he can transport himself somewhere else for a while.
