COMING HOME

What has happened to you and
What has happened to you and your family just breaks my heart Thomas. Explaining to your children will be hard, but, you can do it. I don't know their ages, but, I am sure they will be sad and upset, but, it will also give them time, hopefully, to tell their Mom anything that they want her to know.

I will continue to pray for Lesley and know that I am supporting you and will help in anyway that I can.

Take care of yourself too,


Lex

I am so sorry
for all of you. I am sure that your wife knows how lucky she is to have you by her side. Explaining to the children will not be easy but the fact that will have you to lean on will be a great comfort to them. And I think they will be a great comfort to you as well. You, your wife and your children will be in my thoughts daily.

Hugs
Georgia

You've done everything right
You've also done everything you could do. You did your best to explain the situation to Lesley, and no matter how it hurt you to make this decision, I really believe it is the best of the choices available to you (all of which were awful). We pray that Lesley stays as comfortable as possible during this time, and that you and the children can be there not only for her, but for each other. And again, Thomas, I really do believe that you have done absolutely everything absolutely right.

I am so sorry too. And once
I am so sorry too. And once again, Aortus is right. You have done everything you could and you did it right. My prayers for you and your family. Please keep us updated Thomas.

Hugs, Megan

Thomas I am so very sorry.
Lesley's, life being cut short seems so unfair. Telling your children will be hard. but at least they do have time to say goodbye and talk to Mom. My heart breaks for you and your kids. You all remain in my prayers everyday. Stay strong Thomas, I know it's hard. We are all with you. Thank you for including us Kay,

Prayers, hugs and love
Thomas,
Please know that you will be in our thoughts and prayers as well. The decisions you have had to make are very difficult and I do believe you have done everything in your power to make the best decisions for your wife. She is lucky to have you as I am sure you have felt blessed to have her in your life as well. Come here when you need someone to listen and know that we are with you.

Thomas, I'm so sorry, you
Thomas, I'm so sorry, you and your family are in my prayers. When I had to put my Mom in hospice it broke my heart, knowing it was the end of the road for her was devastating. I can only imagine what you are going through and it has got to be the most difficult time in your life but you can rest assured hospice is very good at what they do and your wife will be comfortable and out of pain. I pray that you find the strength to talk to your kids and that you as a family lean on each other through the toughest time in your lives. You are such an amazing husband and your wife is blessed to have you!! Stay strong and keep coming here, the prayers for you and your family will be thousands.
Big hugs,
Kari

Thomas,
Blessings to you,
Thomas,
Blessings to you, and praying that you get the courage and stretngh to discuss this with your children. My husband and I have first hand experience on dealing with cancer and young kids. I know there are no words to console you, but I had seen a post somewhere earlier about the angels that are hospic nurses -i know from experience on caring for my grandma along with hospice nurses when we had brought her home from the hospital (not from BC, but my parents & i did have hospice education & training from the nurses who would also be coming in to care for her).
My heart literally aches for you and your family. I could go off on the unfairness of all this...I hope that you have a good support system of friends and family for yourself, Thomas, with everything you're going through taking care of your wife..i cannot imagine the toll it's taking on you. I'm praying that you have the strength to keep going on for your children's sake Thomas, and that you have love & support for yourself to deal with this, that your wife & family are surrounded in angels and love and comfort.
*hugs and hugs*

Eloquent
Thomas, everyone on this board is always so eloquent. My own thoughts echo all the previous posts. I will only add that my experience with my mother with Hospice was a very positive one. They kept her very comfortable and they were supportive of her as well as my sister, brother and I. If I remember correctly, they have info available that would be able to help you tell your children and answer questions they may have.

Your family is so very lucky to have you. Sally
