To all, many thanks for your kinds words and thoughts.I didn't know this was posted here. At this moment my Brother Gee and his Fiance` Sandra is an hour or so from my place. They are driving up from Diamondhead Mississippi.
Don, thank you friend for telling our buddies here about my beloved son Drew Leonard Hargis, "The Boogie." His older brother called him that on the job laying brick, and Drew told me he really liked being called "Boogie" so that's been his name since he was 12 years old.
He really was doing great the last 3 years since a doctor started him on Abilify. He just got a nice apartment last February. He was very happy. He was elated that he had a yard of his own. You'd think it was an acre, but it was maybe 10 X 18 feet.
It was when he told his Doctor that he was having trouble swallowing that they ran test and we were told that he had Barrett's Esophagus and a week later was told about the golf size monster tumor in the lower third of his Esophagus.
He did Chemo and Radiation for 6 weeks and had his Esophagus and part of his stomach removed. When we found out about this monster, it was 1 month after he moved into his happy apartment. He is no longer suffering and I'm glad of that. But friends, I'm going to miss him till I'm gone.
