Hello.... just found this post. How are you getting on? Were the Hospice nurses able to help? My dad died of this 3 years ago. My mum managed to keep him at home mainly by using the local hospice at home service. They were wonderful and came and sat with him overnight sometimes so my mum could try and sleep. They were a real boon and became friends. She is a very private lady and really didn’t want other people in her home but she accepted them because they were so considerate. The worst part was his catheter kept needing to be changed. The IPF wasn’t too awful.... he just slept more and more. On the last day he joked with the GP and then just went to sleep. Very peaceful . He was on oxygen a lot but there was no sensation of suffocating... which he had feared.
If you haven’t contacted the hospice yet, please do. Thinking of you both....
What were the first ever records that you bought and when?
Parents-in-Law. What do/did you call them?
