Henry is divorced and lives alone. He has four children that live nearby and helps with the house upkeep and cleaning, and delivery of meals when needed. Usually, an independent and self-caring man, this most recent hospital admission has left Henry with ongoing fatigue, significant weight loss, continuous shortness of breath, and pain. Henry works from home as an insurance agent but has taken leave while he recovers.
