Don... thank you for the update ... having lost a very good friend of 40+ years last year, I have a good sense of what you are going through ... It is very difficult ...

Just tell Hank and Linda we are praying for them ... and for YOU also ...

He has moved to Cornerstone Hospital in Bossier City. He is much more comfortable there. I'll be going by this afternoon.

I spent about an hour with Hank and Linda. He is doing much better since the move. I think they needed to get his medication straightened out.
I told him we expect him to be up and around by the Jam.

If he could continue to improve, it would be the greatest Christmas gift of all ...

I visited Hank and Linda yesterday evening. His family had been there quite a bit yesterday. Not sure if he was aware of much though. He was not as responsive as he was the past couple of days.
He is being fed mostly by tube, and has lost more than 100 pounds.
Wish I had better news.
Don

Sorry to hear about Hank's misfortune. Cancer is truly a scourge of modern society needless to say. I know an acquaintance who recently went through both chemo and radiation and each time she received radiation treatment it knocked her for a loop for a couple weeks at a time before she started to regain strength and feel better again. She had her last treatment about a month ago and as far as I know the cancer is in remission and she's looking and feeling much better. Our prayers are with Hank and his family during this difficult time and we all hope to see him back on his feet and feeling better real soon.

PS: He's been an integral part of this forum, especially since he went from lurker to an actual participating member. We anticipate his eventual and hopefully soon return to the Synth Zone as I know you do too Don. Thank you for the update as well.

All the best,
Mike

All the very best to you Hank. Everybody knows of someone with this disease, and the good news is that they're getting closer every day to solving the riddle of cancer, and it sounds like you're well on the way to recovery.

I spent a couple hours with Hank this evening, while Linda went home to take care of some business.
Earlier in the day, he had sat up in a chair and talked to Joe Lee for about an hour, so that was great news. It really tired him out though. I took him a Subway sandwich for supper. Hope he felt like eating some of it!
Nothing has changed about his condition; he has good days and some not-so-good.
