We had a similar group up north for cancer patients. Attending the decision making appointment. 3 fresh meals a day delivered, every morning, staying with the person for as long as it takes. Rides to treatment, holding hand or in many cases hair while losing the breakfast you just brought. Each person usually had a support group of 2-5 dedicated people. Many time their spouse has abandoned them.

My support role “I don’t want to do this anymore, Mets no chance of survival, I just want to enjoy what’s left of my life”. Most of the group says it’s the hardest. But support for that decision is hard for the person and they really need that special someone until the end.
