I'm afraid you're right. It's looking like the brain thing is going to be worse than the diabetes. We'll see.
He is responding pretty well to the "mothering" Vicki is giving him. The others she advocates for just depend on her to manage appointments and prescriptions. A wants her to be in the office with the doctors and listen to what they say and to help him get his story right. She has caught him minimizing symptoms a couple of times. The neurologist thinks she's his mother.
But it is wearing on her (us). The alerts always mean a phone call, either incoming ("I got it, I'm OK") or outgoing ("Get your ass to the kitchen and eat something"). We have come to love the guy. He's over here almost every day and he is a joy to be around.
We don't really need to be handling another loss.
