Update from John:
Just returned from Kalaloch Lodge on the Pacific Coast and Mt Rainer.
Sharon has degraded a lot from when we left last tuesday to our return today (saturday). At the beach, I asked her if she wanted to go home, and she said no, and pointed to Mt Rainer on the map. It was all really too much for her. She broke down in tears many times faced with the reality of the situation.
She has virtually lost her right arm. It mostly hangs limp, but sometimes she has it up. Her right leg is starting to go. Her language center is very badly damaged.
Sharon has degraded to where yes/no answers are getting difficult. This is a very huge change. She has also developed a dry cough over the last few days.
We ate out a lot on vacation, and I essentially feed her everything. Sometimes she will snap something off her plate with her left hand.
