So sad.
Steve had a very bad night last night. In fact he has been feeling bad for the last several days. Today he was talking to his brother in Washington over the phone and he apparently just stopped responding. Ron, Steve’s brother called my son, George who ran right over to check on him. Steve was just sort of ‘out of it’, which we sort of chalked up to pain killers.
We went and did some light shopping (the cats were out of food), then George went back over to keep Steve company. While he was there, Steve had a seizure. George ran him right up to the hospital, in fact he is still there. They admitted Steve tonight. Tests confirm that the tumor has spread to his brain. He had just finished a week’s worth of radiation treatments for the one on his spine, now this. I doubt if there is much that can be done at this point.. I think we may have finally reached the point of going from an aggressive fight to palliative care. It has been a year since diagnosis and they had given him six months to a year….
