Alan, my thanks for your good thoughts. The doctor said today that he just lost a patient, 54-y-o, who fell down the stairs, instant death from breaking his neck. This doesn't make Jimmie feel any better, of course ... We are coping, naturally. He is walking better, at least half of the time. When he gets to sleeping better, perhps then I can do the same. It's hard on both of us only snatching 2 hours of sleep in a night... Last night he just about fell out of bed - whew! No way I could have picked up such a big man! I actually caught him in the act, and got him back on the bed. Amazing ... We just have to give nature time.
