It is Tuesday morning and it looks like Jan is going to get to go home. These past few days have been very trying for her and watching it has been no fun either. The good thing is that our decision to not do surgery has lifted a Hugh load from our shoulders. Our family and friends have been very supportive and we thank and praise God for their prayers and support. We know where we are destined to be, all together, with no pain, worries or aliments. Being in the presence of god and family daily. Amen, Amen!!
Our first meeting with the doctor was a little confusing and difficult to imagine. We gave him no answer. On Sunday, the same neuro Dr. Came by at 3 pm Supper bowl Sunday. At the same ttime another Dr that represents Texas health resources was there at the same time. Imagine that, 2 dr at Jan's room at the same time, and on Super Bowl Sunday. God k new that we needed help and he double teamed us. If you ask me if I was in the same situation as a person with dementia for many years and can perform no activity of daily living and getting a little worse each month do I want you to put me through a painful surgery with unknown reprecussions and endless list of risks and no guarantee that it will work, then I would say, please don't. In Jan's situation she wouldn't want this either. Jan and I had talked years ago about DNR and other such things. In this case we are following Jan's wishes.
