which is good, but I'm sure he thinks the problem, right now, is with me. He does have a team of doctors, a nutritionist, speech pathologist, social worker and nurses working with him, so if he needed anything additional I'm sure they'd get it for him quickly. I started the conversation with him tonight regarding getting some emotional support and meeting with other patients. He seemed to like the idea. I so appreciate your ideas and support.
