Earlier this week my sister and I drove to Granbury, Tx to visit our brother, Dan. He has bile duct cancer and has been on chemo. It was a good trip down there, but when we got there we realized how far along he is. We got there Tuesday afternoon, after he had a CAT scan and left Thursday am. Stopped at several antique stores and a produce stand. Bought one of the best watermelons I've had.
On Friday he went to the Dr for the results of the CAT scan. The chemo had no effect on the cancer and they took him off chemo and told them to call Hospice. This is not news the that we wanted to hear. I think this has prolonged my stay in Oklahoma as the prognosis is not good. He has not been with us long enough as we only found him about 16 years ago. Our Mother had given him up for adoption and he found us. It has been amazing having an older brother. It was like he had been a part of our family from the beginning. His sence of humor is the same, etc. and his wife, Jo is like a sister. She is so sweet.
