John is still hanging on - although it does appear that his organs are shutting down. He has become quite swollen and while the nurse prescribed Lasix for water retention, it doesn't seem to be doing much good. He is very confused and tried to get out of bed yesterday. So, I can no longer leave the house without someone to watch over him. He hasn't eaten anything but a slice of toast in the last 2 days. The nurse said not to force the issue.
No sleep last night - I hope I can get a little rest this afternoon.
Thanks for all the kind wishes - Love you all.

IMPORTANT STUFF
If you are a man over 40, ask your doctor for a PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) test - It may save your life. My husband was tested at 52 and it was already too late. His prostate cancer had spread to his lymph nodes and become terminal. He has been fighting his battle for 6 years.
Long time ago!
My Dedication
This blog is dedicated to all the men who are fighting the battle of prostate cancer. May you win!
