Frail

 He woke me at one this morning to help him get out of bed to get to the bathroom.

When I guided him there, I felt how tight the skin was across his ribcage.

My goal now is to keep him from pain and anxiety and to keep myself from becoming any crazier than I am.

He weighs 114 lbs now.

Yesterday the hospice nurse and I went over what was happening inside him clinically as he is shutting down.

How can my heart keep breaking.  It should be done by now.
