So sorry to hear this. But glad they are able to care for him with knowledge and experience gained from other cases. Think positive.

I checked into this thread to see how Jeffrey is doing. He has a lot of people pulling for him, as do you and your wife at this worrying time.

Alan, that sucks, and I can't imagine how you and your family are feeling. Jeffrey has great care and age well planted in his favor, so sending all the good thoughts that this does the trick.
