My grandad has been slowly deteriorating over the last couple of years however since the beginning of this year, when his treatment was stopped, this has become more rapid. He is currently on a high steroid dose which I think is masking lots of symptoms & this is slowly being decreased over the coming months. I understand the effect this will have on him but my worry is that he is currently fighting the deterioration. He is upset and frightened about what’s happening & doesn’t feel like he can leave us. I want to tell him that he doesn’t need to worry about us and that it will be okay. But I don’t know how. I am so proud of him & I don’t want him to feel like this towards the end.
