There's many issues around this situation that the family need to consider or address as you have mentioned. Then there's the personal feelings and emotions  - A tough situation all around I think. I guess the good part is that the person suffering (if not in pain) is blissfully unaware. My dad is anyway. He is apathetic on pretty much everything. 

He's eating well at the moment and when he doesn't a whole raft of other things will kick into play but for now he is happy (I think) and safe. It's all we can ask for. 

Thanks for your comments. I know it may be a little raw for you considering your recent; loss. Thank you.
