Hi all,
My father was diagnosed with terminal cancer a year ago and was told he had a year to live. The last couple of weeks he's been in hospice care but was really keen to get home.
We got him home today and it was great to see him in the house, however, bed time was a reality check.
He had terrible breathlessness and a lack of power in his legs meaning getting from the living room, up the stairs and to the bed was a traumatic experience.
We have a toilet down stairs but no shower. My feelings just now are moving his bed downstairs and finding some way of getting him washed in the kitchen?
Would be keen to hear any ideas, suggestions from people who've been through similar?
I'm a realist and have accepted that he's going to die etc, just want to find the easiest way of making his last time with us as drama free as possible so he can enjoy what he can.
