"John has had a hard time finding comfort of almost any kind. At my request, we called in Hospice a few weeks ago and that's helping some. We did that while waiting for his medical oncologist to get back from vacation, which he did yesterday (7/5).
John is currently scheduled for chemo on Tuesday (7/9). Given his physical condition (he's lost more weight and isn't eating or drinking much, and is weak), the Dr. said it could be done, but he wouldn't recommend it. John will be deciding what he wants to do over the weekend. I'll keep you posted."
I replied that they are both in my heart and prayers, and in those of many others,,

Thank you for keeping us updated, Darcy. I don't know what the PCA family would do without you and your constant support.

Thank you all for you continued support. right nwo i am struggling with chemobrain -which is fallout from the chemo. you can't think straifht, typle, read or d anything els like I used to. lots of adaption has to be done, but working on it."

Good to hear from him, but sad to hear it's down to hospice. Basically preparing for the end with as much comfort and dignity as possible. Hopefully they have him on home hospice.
Thx Darcy.

Re: The doctors have run lots of tests on me and the news is not good.
Yes,, very, very saddening,,,
I do believe hospice is at home, FP, because his wife posted 7/6 that, "we called in Hospice a few weeks ago ***".
