I've just put in an order with The Arc to pick up our marital bed on Monday morning so that a hospital bed can be delivered Monday afternoon.
He is so weak now.On Sunday he came out to sit in his wingback and suddenly made a face.
"I've dirtied myself," he said when I asked. I asked if he needed the movable toilet and he said "No, I've already." So I spread some newspapers under his feet, got his walker to help him stand up, stripped his dirty clothes off him, cleaned his butt, got a fresh nightie on him and then got him to the bedroom where I got some pullups on him.
In some ways, this is a privilege. If I can hold that in my heart. To birth the love of one's life into the next world.
Advent.
