Paula is having a really rough time of it as her husband John declines. I just wanted to start a new thread so that folks here who know her might send her some love and support.

As for me, I'll say, Hang in there Paula - we love you and are holding you and John in our hearts.

    Agreed
    Both of you have been through so much. All of us just feel so helpless at a time like this, Paula.

    I know you both need and lean on each other so much - we all worry about you and JR and I just wanted to pass along my well wishes - but wish it could be so much more.

    Words mean little right now, but the whole community is standing in there with you:)

    Dear Paula
    Dear Paula,

    There are no words which can make this time easier for you, I only wish there were.

    Please know that you and JR are thought about and prayers are sent your way to make these days as easy as possible.

    Take care dear lady. Hugs to you both.

    Paula:
    Thank you Adrian for starting this thread. How kind of you to continue to think about Paula considering what is going on in your home.

    Paula truly is having a difficult time. JR is declining in health and decided some time go "no more". Paula is wheelchair bound and truly scared. I PM with her regularly.

    Paula and JR we love and think of you often. As I told you, I just wish the miles did not separate us.

    Love to you both - Tina

    I enjoyed our talk on the phone the other day. It really helps to have someone to vent to and you know we are all here for you. Did you show JR the pic I sent??? Call anytime... Love you both my friend.

    I'm so sorry you are going through this very difficult time. Paula - I hope you'll come and post when you need others that understand what you are going through - even if you just need to vent.

    I wish for peace and comfort for both of you in these hard days.

    Thank you so much
    Adrian,
    thank you so much for this post. You are in a rough place as well. I think of you and John everyday as I have told you. You are both wonderful people.

    To all of you I thank you for your wonderful thoughts and caring. I really really do. I don't get on the board much now. I am spending time with John as much as I can. I feel so helpless and at times just have to break down.

    You are all so strong. I hope I can be. I thank you all so much. Paula
