A reminder about how short life is…

I have gone silent over the last couple of weeks.

Life changed in seconds when my father in law told us he had liver cancer on October 29th.

He said that chemo was supposed to shrink it but chemo did not work; I honestly think chemo made him sicker. After his first chemo treatment his bilirubin levels started increasing; then after the second chemo treatment his hemoglobin level dropped resulting in him needing a blood and platelet transfusion. He came home and rallied for a few days but then his blood pressure started dropping. The Wednesday before Thanksgiving we met with the doctor, we learned that his bilirubin level were still high and that his liver and kidneys were starting to fail, thus hospice was our best options.

In the early morning hours on December 4th he left us and went to his enteral rest in heaven.

I had a special connection with my father in law.  He loved me just like I was one of his own.
