Grassington Springs

Hi all, its Casey here with John in Grassington. The plan, as many of you know, was to move John to Alderbrook nursing home in North Leeds, where he could get nursing care at a level he needs. However the districts nurses have now decided its not possible to move him, which means we're in the last few days/weeks of life. John is on a morphine patch, steroids and unti-seisure medication. He sleeps most of the time. After some discomfort with a catheter and dealing with his changing mental state, he seems much calmer. He's got the peace and tranquility he had in the early stages of the disease. His breathing is laboured, but he can still hear the spring birds through the window, in the place where he chose to be. 

Thank you for the messages/photos/playlists of memories over the last few months, its mean a lot to him. The staff in Hill Top have been wonderfully kind. We've had lots of conversations about Krishnamurti, and thoughts on death. You can read some of them in his last blog posts. Thats it for now.
