    My son passed away a little over two years ago. You can read his story in the blogs as I believed that I blogled about his end life story. Cory also had made the decision to not further try transplant (denied by California due to Cepacia) and also chose to not be vented. Cory had spend a long...

    5 wishes, living will, power of attorney, advanced directives

    With Cory, we used the 5 wishes form. We never got to officially file it since I am unsure about that part. We chose 5 wishes because it didn't seemed aimed at "the elderly" and given that Cory was only 23 years old, it was the best suit. One of the best things we did was have a copy of our...

    Is Bi Pap a trend in treatments

    My son was on bi-pap at night for about 7 months, more often when he was having a rough time. He never did get to the point where he "liked" it but he kept at it because he knew it worked. He knew he was able to do something because of what the bi-pap did for him. He always used the full face...
