No taking him back home is not really an option. He can’t move and needs hospital care. My sister could not handle that. His name is Leslie.

You are getting very good advice here.

You are witnessing a natural process which has, in a single generation, become almost unknown to the average person.

Hospice will help, a lot. There’s a reason morphine was the first drug.

Be not afraid. The end of mortal flesh comes for all of us. Your Dad will be in my prayers, and you as well.

Prayers for you all. There are no easy answers, but best to honor his wishes. He’s had a long life. Talk to hospice, they can help you through this. My mother died in hospice care in our home. Tough days ahead for you.
