I am leaving for Fl tomorrow to go with my FH to get my future father in law set up with Hospice. It sounds so final. I just need the strength to be there for him without breaking down myself. The finality of life really sucks.

collette, first of all i'm so sorry that you have to experience this. it is such a hard thing to watch (as a nurse) let alone to experience. your FH is lucky to have someone so supportive. while i'm sure that you feel like you have to be strong, i think just being there with your FH will be enough. you have a connection to his father so you are allowed to visibly be upset too, i just wanted you to know that while it will definitely take strength to go through this....you're allowed to be upset. the most important thing is that you are there for your FH and that will help him get through it.
hang in there....
