Had a bad day and had to call Hospice.His blood pressure was 100/60 and has been for 2 days now.He started out taking pain pills 1 every 6 hours but today we found he needed 2 every 4 hours,so the hospice nurse came out and he is now wearing a Fentanyl patch.He can still take a pain pill as a buffer.The patch started working almost immediately and did not need a buffer for 13 hours.He is having a hard time swallowing so they have put him on "Thick-it"to make water a little thick so it more or less slides down the throat.Breanne,her boys [Jaden,Bryent and Lane],Butch and Threse arrived.
