So, what did you do when your husband did not want to take his medications?
After all, you can't actually force them?
 Thanks so much, 
Rhonda

Dear Rhonda,

I understand what you are going through. I'm praying for Ben and for you.

Sounds like something serious, and if it were me, I would seek 
medical help immediately.

I'm praying, and please keep us posted.

I've been there with Vernon in similar situations when he didn't want 
his meds and did not  want me to take his blood sugar when he was 
sick, and that is so very important to monitor.

Thanks, and please keep us posted. Many lovings and squeezings for 
both of you and lots of prayers, also.

Love and Blessings,
Pat Ferguson
