Well not sure how to say this....
If you know me & have posted with me for a while now, you'll know about my very young uncle with stomach cancer. A year ago, he had his stomach removed.
He went back into the ER last Friday & is still there.
Last night, my mom called & said that the doctor said, this is the end...nothing more they can do. We cried & went to visit him.
When we got there, my mom & nanny were there but just leaving so Nick & I got to talk to him alone.
He was in good spirits (I can't imagine what I would be like
) He laughed with us & opened up. Mind you, I asked him straight out hard questions bc I am tired of my family not & then every one assumes stuff. I don't like to assume, I like real answers.
He said his GP is the one that said "this is it". I asked him what his Oncologist said & she said that it means, maybe more chemo. You see, he had swollen up in his abdomen with fluid, they drained it & are now going to send it to be tested for cancer. We don't know yet if this is cancer but they suspect it maybe be.
Anyway, enough about our troubles, just need some support & maybe some nice thoughts &
for my mom's little brother.
I think that I am going to open up a cancer support board. We have 3 people in our family with it. Ugh!
Thanks for listening to me.

Nice to hear that your uncle is in great spirits.
