So very sorry to hear that. But I know you've done all you could.
Same story happened with my folks. Dad was battling multiple cancers and, like you, got to where he could no longer lift her. And when the doctors told him that they could do nothing more for him, that he'd be dead in 6 months, he put her in a home and tried a Hail Mary by trying to get "cured" through some little hole-in-the-wall in California. Less than 2 days after getting there, he collapsed on the floor, paralyzed from the waist down due to an unknown tumor on his spine. So then these so-called specialists ran him through their antiquated radiation machine. Ended up burning his esophagus. Made it so he could no longer eat or drink. He was dead a month later.
Mom was still in the nursing home. The move there for her was a tough one as she would have these moments of clarity, would see where she was and would know why, then she'd start crying. The more time that passed, the less that happened. She just kept reverting into earlier and earlier parts of her life while the modern life just drained away. I was actually thankful when she died. She had zero quality of life. Her life had already ended, but her body had not.
Prayers for you and yours. That's a nasty, miserable place to be in for both of you!

Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
