      Hadn’t given an update in a while. Just waneed to share our decision to have hospice come in. After 3 years different trials rhat worked initially and then have eventual disease progression, my husbands heroic struggle with this disease will come to an end. Ad a last ditch effort he was scheduled for IL2 3 weeks ago but due to disease progression was too sick just days before. After being home for 2 weeks now, we called hospice in and he no longer is limiting narcotics for pain in fear of addiction. He has pain relief and rest peacefully now. Jad several weeks to preparr and he even at a too young age of 45 has accepted was is to be. Please pray for his continued comfort and comfort for myself and our two young teen daughters who are struggling with this so much.
