Cancer Support

He does have times when he lashes out but never physically.
He is in hospice so the only medications he is on are pain medications.

It took some time to get the right combination and get his pain under control.

You do need a break for your own health.
My grandson gives me that so I can go home to be with my husband.

For me it's depressing to see my child in so much pain and knowing he will eventually be gone.

His type of cancer is slow growing so it could be months or a couple of years.

For your own health do take breaks if you can especially if you loved on becomes difficult. Remember it's the illness not who your loved one really is.

I'm not dealing with any type of dementia with my son so don't have any advice except to talk with their doctor on dealing with that.
