This isn't usually done here but I would like to ask for lots of glow for a friend's family. Her husband is having his right leg amputated next week. There was talk of a false pelvis being put in but I'm not sure about that.

Cancer was found in March but they've been unable to get it all through surgeries. He's a big man, about 6'5" and they've gone out of state for treatment and are in an apartment there. Now, won't be able to return to their home because it's not handicapped accessible. I really think their kids will convince them to move totally which would mean leaving all their support systems here. (Have lived in the same house nearly forty years)Obviously, I worry about her as caregiver because he's always been very needy.



Does anyone have any experience with this severe type life change?

Little things that only an insider would know?



Thanks for the patience for this OT note when we've had such

fun things going.
