    Wolfen...

    I am so sorry it has come to this. I was a home hospice nurse for several years and I know how hard this is for you and your family but I also know that following his wishes to come home will give you comfort. I didn't have to take my own husband off a ventilator, but I had to make the decision for no more treatment at the end - only comfort measures, as he was dying and I knew it. And yes, it was hard. So my heart goes out to you as you face this as Ron's wife. I have thought about you all day, but have been away from the computer and wondering how it was all going for you. I'll be thinking of you over the next days. Such a heartbreaking time - just take it one breath at a time. 41 years together is an amazing thing.

    Sorrow

    Just can't express the sorrow I'm feeling for you and family.  This has to be such a tough decision for you to make under these circumstances.  Hubby sure was lucky to have such a wonderful wife as you.  May God bring him home peacefully and also bring you comfort and let you know that you have loved ones and friends thinking and praying for you.  My heart is with you and family.  Also may your wonderful daughter find peace through this as well.

    Hugs!  Kim

    I am so sorry

    Wolfen and JBG, I am praying for peace and acceptance. How we get through this is a miracle. I know the heartbreak and I thought my heart would burst from the pain. You will be held up by all who love you both. We will all be sending prayers. Be kinds to yourself, do things at your own pace and take one day at a time. Your husband knew how much you loved him, have no doubt.

    Sending you healing thoughts and prayers with love,

    Judy

    23 years ago I took my husband home for the last time.  I was scared, lonely, and heart broken.  I held his hand as he moved into the next realm...  His words...  I never regretted taking him home.  God bless you and your family...
