  • My BIL finally seems on the upswing. Things have not been well since the surgery almost 3 weeks ago, but he got his breathing tube out yesterday in favor of a tracheotomy. He thought maybe it was rejection, but doesn't yet realize it is cancer. My husband checks his e-mail vigilantly every day now. His family probably doesn't realize how emotionally affected he is by this. I think they think of him as being willingly segregated and non-paticipatory.

  • I am glad your BIL is doing better. How is his prognosis? Whatever your husband's family thinks, you know how he feels.

  • Yeah what tb said.  Dh's maternal grandmother and he are estranged so to speak and she is very ill.   It has been very hard on him, also.

  • (((hugs))) cancer is so awful.

    I'll give you a choice of either the letter U or the letter V, whichever one you prefer.  :)
