Thank you for all your thoughts. My parents are definitely not ready to give me total control. They do let me follow up with the doctor.

Yesterday was my parent's 62nd anniversary. We went out for dinner together. Although it was early and didn't last long, I could see my mom struggling to keep her eyes open by the end of dinner.

Whenever we speak of transfusions she makes a face and comments about how she doesn't want to be doing this. I think she is hanging on for my dad. When I asked him if they have had a conversation about this, he told me that they haven't. He wants her to be with him as long as possible. I have to get my mom alone and figure out if she is prolonging her life to make him happy.

Every day this gets harder.
Yaka
