I've been thinking about you guys also. I don't know how you are getting through this most difficult time. Do you have good family/friend support?  As strong as we think we are sometimes we need help. You have an incredible support family here too!

till out last breath:

Hang in there.  I finally managed to overcome a huge hurdle myself and my husband is finally almost himself.  He did have alot of edema and slept alot too, but he is now getting his energy back and staying awake for longer periods of time, and even cooking again. Something he truely enjoys!  My prayers and thoughts are with both of you!
