The best thing the kids can do for him is to love him and let him know that this won't change a thing. They will be doing more for him now and thats ok. My Papa was a very sick man for so long. He had a stroke that left him unable to walk or talk. With my Granny's love and support he learned to walk and talk all over. The one thing I noticed with Papa was that once he had his stroke he lost many friends and my mother and my half-sister's quit coming to see him. I think that was very hard on him. It sounds like your FIL has a HUGE support group and that will mean the world to him. It is always very hard seeing loved ones go through something like this. It was very hard for me so I know it must be for your family. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers. HUGS
