Stop in for a cup of coffee

Oh Jeez, my brother in law with the late stage liver cancer just called. He's in the hospital with gall stones. Not sure if they are going to operate, but in his condition I don't know if he would survive the surgery. They just told him last week that the blood vessels in his liver were so badly destroyed now that they can no longer do chemo.

Somehow, I don't think a liver transplant is going to happen soon enough to save him and without one I don't think he can make it much past Christmas (if that).

Ugh! It's going to be a long Holiday season and even longer Winter at this rate. No joy in our future I fear. I just hope it ends without undue misery...for all involved.
