They have moved Hank to his home and he is under Hospice care. He is still heavily sedated, but his wife and daughter are there to take care of him and the Hospice people come by regularly. This has been a tremendous task for both Hank and the family and will only get harder as time passes.
I will go to visit him in a couple of hours. I'm hoping he will be more comfortable there.

It's a tough go looking after someone at home...I looked after an uncle with Alzheimer's for about three years. Even with help from Home Care, it sure took a lot out of me.

Would I do it again? Of course.

Family is family.

All the best to Hank and his kin.

A lot of us will be thinking of Hank, every day.

He's so lucky to have a support system of family and friends.

Haven't been posting here..but I have been following these updates and notes about this fellow Hank and have kept him in my prayers. I cannot imagine what the family is going through even though my wife had early detected cancer four years ago. My father dies last year with Leukemia but he was ambulatory until his last day, thank God.

My prayers are with this man I don't know and especially his family.

Kingfrog, it's good to hear from you again. I always tell Hank about everyone's prayers and wishes. I think he hears most everything but has trouble responding now.
Hank has been my best friend for the past 20 years and there is not a better person in the world. I'm so sad that this had to happen to him.
