Update 10/28

He was admitted after going to the ER today and is in ICU. If anyone reads this any prayers or healing and good vibes would be appreciated greatly.

Update 10/26

Even with the stint he is unable to eat and his vomiting has persisted. If it continues through tomorrow he will have to go back to the hospital. He has lost approx. 60 lbs at this point and I'll be surprised if he's here on Thanksgiving. I hate to see him suffering so much. I don't know what to say or do, we visit as often as we can but we've had some sickness travel through our own house that has put us out of visiting for a week at one point. He's weak enough without having step throat on top of it and my four kids passed it around like candy on Halloween.

Update

So they put a stint (sp?) in his esophagus so that he can at least swallow food. Another gallon of fluid was drained from him, that's 2 gallons and a quart in less than a month. The odds aren't good but we're going to do the best with whatever time we've got left.

The doc visit....

Well he went to see the doctor and they said that most often with this cancer the person usually has 3-6 months. But with his advanced state they could not even give 3 months. We were told to enjoy every moment we could with him and keep things around him as peaceful as possible. You cry and cry, knowing whats coming but still you always have hope. To have it laid out in such a manner before you is a fresh blow to an already damaged emotional grid.

With everything wrong in this world that can't be helped and healed why is it that so many epic fails are happening? So many children and ppl gone missing and yet no one knows where they are. I find this disturbing, nauseating, and heartbreakingly sad.

He goes back to see the doc tomorrow

So he goes back to see the doc tomorrow and they will see how fast his cancer is progressing and give us a time frame. He's gone down so fast that I just don't think he'll be here come Christmas. It's in so many places and he's just so weak now. He can't be up and about for more than 15-20 minutes and he's got to lay down and rest, catch his breath. I'm trying to keep a brave face. Keeping the little things done around the house here so nothing will pile up too bad if I have to be with mom for a few days or so. The details of his burial and such have already been decided, he's getting his affairs in order just like the doc told him to do last time he went. I told mom that I wasn't sure I wanted to know what the doc said tomorrow but I do. She told me if I didn't want to know she'd keep it from me. But I do want to know, I want to spend as much time with him as I can. I love him, the kids love their Pawpaw. He's a great man.
