Hospice

It has been a very long month. Bob was put on Hospice this past week. He is losing weight rapidly even thou he is eating fairly consistently.  Food does just not want to "stick to his ribs" these days.  He is a shadow of his former self. The nurses can lift and carry Him like a child.
He hasnt spoken much at all the past month. He cannot hold his head up so spends much of his time in bed. I feel so lost watching him go through this.
I visit him almost daily now and sometimes twice if he was asleep during the early visit. I often wonder if he even realizes I am there. We watch TV and I carry on a conversation as if he was answering my chatter. I miss him so much.
We carry on in this ugly Alzheimers world. I hate this diesease.
