Good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Shreveport.
Sending love. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of San Jose.
Best of luck. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
Good luck, Ruth. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Thanks for sharing this, Ruth. Hope this works out for you. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this, Ruth. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Nottingham
