My father in law was diagnosed with colon cancer about 10 years ago... it moved slowly, and the stubborn coot never got it treated. Last year he discovered that the cancer had finally metastasized to his lungs and liver. The colon cancer and the lungs were actually put into remission, but the liver cancer has taken off massively. He now has a growth larger than a grapefruit which is vascular. That means it is inoperable, and chemo has not helped it this time.
My brother in law Steven asked us to go see him today (Sunday) and his condition was deteriorated so badly in one week that we realized he's close to the end. Steven is his medical proxy and caregiver, and he's moved in for the duration.
I will be helping Steven until Dad passes, so I wont be on much. I wont be in much of a cheerful mood most likely when I am on.
I am sorry about any commitments I've made to clan and guilds, but I am sure you all understand why I wont be able to hold to them. I am not gone forever, but I also have no idea what my future holds... My husband might be in need of my undivided attention once this ends.
