Final stages of GMB4, what can we expect?

I am wondering what to expect in the final weeks of my husbands life. He has a GMB4 was given approximately 6 weeks to live 2 weeks ago. He was told to get all affairs in order, see people he wants to see ASAP as things were progressing quickly yet he has no symptoms apart from a blood clot 2 days ago so he is resting in bed until it gets dispersed . Other than that he is absolutely fine ! It's surreal that this could be his final weeks I'm so frightened of losing my best friend of only 3 years to this awful disease and cannot imagine him not here. Any thoughts or advice would be so appreciated xx
