My friend is going through the same thing. He has some genetic condition I don’t understand really. He’s not eligible for a living doner. I’m going back to help take care of him while he waits for a doner and the transplant. The whole thing is effecting his short term memory really extremely and I don’t know how to entertain him when his memory is too off for him to follow things for more than a few min.
I have no idea what to expect. How can I be there for him? What can I do to make things easier while we wait? I don’t even know what to ask. I’m scared.
I know I shouldn’t be because it’s not me who’s sick, but we’ve been close for 20+ years (met in high school) and he’s so fragile, and the wait is so long, and I’m moving across the country, and I have NO IDEA WHAT IM DOING and no idea what to expect in the long run.
Any tips or suggestions or anything you can tell me would help.
