Syringedriver been in place a couple of weeks. Hyoscine to help dry up secretions created by the terrible coughing and morphine for the pain caused by the coughing. Extra stat doses are also being given by needle as only so much hyoscine can be given in the driver. This must be painful as hubby has lost a tremendous amount of weight. Elbows and knees turning purple today which means the body is starting to close down. Hubby has been asleep since Saturday lunchtime and doesn’t appear to be in pain and is comfortable. Feel so helpless watching decline. Cannot post approprite words for how I feel about PSP. Jxx

Aww Zeberdee so utterly saddened to read. Sending you much love and strength for the coming days. I won’t post the words I feel about Psp, I’d seriously offend too many people here! Hugs darling x
My heart is with you. Love and peace and strength to you and your family. Ec
My heart also goes out to you, so sad, sending you a big hug I feel you need it, words can’t express my feelings xxxx
Zeberdee. J
Just to say your not alone.
I and, I am sure many others, are here for you.
I have lit a candle for you both and placed it in the window, old seafarer fashion, for sailors in peril. To bring them home.
Warmly
Kevin

No words needed on how you feel about PSP. We all feel the same. My heart goes out to you at this very painful time. Just cuddle him and tell him you love him, as much as you can.
Sending very big hug and much love
Lots of love

Feeling so sad for you both, wishing you both strength in your hour of need JR61 x
Hi Zeberdee. I am so sorry for both of you. Why is it that we appear to be asked to cope with things that are totally unbearable but we seem to get the strength to hang in there? I hope it helps to know that so many people have you in their thoughts. Take care of yourself.

Hi Zeberdee, so sorry to read your post. Unfortunately too many of us have walked that road and know just how you feel. Sending you strength and peace and much love (and hugs, because you said you like them!). I will hold you both in my thoughts. Treasure the time that you have and love him as much as you can. xx
Dear Zeberdee, sending you the biggest of hugs. We have literally just been thru this. Mum passed on the 3rd December. She too had syringe driver and parts of her body began shutting down, her heels turned black where the tissue was dying. It was awful to watch and at that point you just want it to be over so that our loved one is not suffering any longer. It sounds as though your husband is very near the end. Stay strong a little longer sweetheart. God bless, Michele xxx
Sadden to read you post,it must be so frightening for you.As much as we read and try to prepare ourselves for this point in this dreadful disease I don't think it will be ever enough to say goodbye to your love one.
(((Hugs)))

You are so right x thankyou. Jxx
I wish you all peace and love. I have this disease and wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Love, Mary B.
