Posted by Walkabout,

it is with a sad and heavy heart to share this post from FB by Beradete McBrayer only 30 minutes ago ;   "  This man. This wonderful, caring, loving, empathetic, gracious man has left us. He fought a hard battle with this wretched disease and for two years - two long years - he kept the faith, kept strong as much for him as for us.

It's a horrible disease and the treatment is almost as bad the disease.  I can appreciate Joe being worn out and tired from all this.  Keep strong, Joe.  We're all rooting for you and sending you strength and encouragement through the interwebs.

two updates from Joe just minutes ago ;   #1 "  My nurse called to let me know my CEAs went down 111 points." .    and # 2   "  I got more news today. I got a call from a Liver Specialist. I will have two more treatments and a MRI. Once the specialist gets the results from the MRI he will do some aggressive procedures with me" keep sending all that positive energy to Joe and his family as they fight everyday for final victory !  :23:

posted @ FB late last night :   "  Bernadete and I met with a Liver Specialist today in regards to doing a more aggressive treatment to the cancer spots in my liver. This will include radioactive beeds will be injected into my blood stream near the liver and will blast these cancer cells. There is a lot of upside with this procedure. Plus I am so ready to have my life back. I want to continue on as an educator and enjoy life. I feel very comfortable and confident with this doctor. It looks like this procedure will be done in December."  lets hope this will make Joe cancer free !

That sounds more hopeful than he's sounded for a while and I'm so glad.  Having confidence in the doctor AND the treatment is so very  important.  I have very good vibes from this news Walkabout, thanks for posting it! 

Ditto from me of GG's post.
