We have called in hospice

Hi All -

My mother keeps sitting down to start this post but cannot seem to find the words. We were supposed to start chemo on Monday but shortly after his last radiation treatment last week daddy's health started to decline. We started hospice care on Monday. He can no longer walk and is having a hard time communicating. His breathing is labored and he finds it difficult to eat. We are hopefully controlling his pain with morphine and he spends most of his day asleep.

We want to thank you all for your love and support during this time. Keep sending your prayers his way.

Love,
Katie
