Thanks for the update Walkabout, even though it's not good news.  All of the positive healing vibes I can muster are being sent right now.  Whoosh!...

 

[The Old Man]

Keeping battling, Joe! You are beating this horrendous illness and we're so proud of you. This Is Who We Are.

   things are not going well for Joe .  he is still in the hospital and will soon be moved to rehab.  there is always hope but reality can not be ignored .  please continue to send love and strength his way and for for his family .  

posted by his wife a few minutes ago on FB ;  "  Friends and family - Joe is still at Mercy Hospital. The short term plan is to get him ready to go to rehab by the beginning of next week to gain some strength back.His oncologist is going to monitor his liver function for the next two weeks. If there is no improvement or it gets worse, he has advised us to look into hospice care, either here st the Pratt Center (where Joe does chemo) or at home. Alongside the liver, the cancer lesions in his lungs are continuing to grow rapidly. The one in his upper arm bone is the most painful one. Pain meds are able to control the pain for now.You all know Joe and what a fighter he is. We have not given up, but we need to come to terms on what the best care for him is. Trust me when I tell you that "saying" come to terms and "accepting" come to terms are very far apart in my head right now.If you are in town and would like to visit him, he's in room 5360. Plz be sure you ask the nurses for a gown and gloves as he is still battling C-diff, a nasty staph infecction and visitors need to cover up.I know you are already doing this, but I can't tell you how much it means to us that you are praying for him, for Gabriel and I. A friend said our village will take care of us. So, plz keep prayers, light, love, good thougths and good vibes coming. "

Walkabout--I don't know Bernadete (or Gabe) at all, and am not on FB, so could you please relay to her my thoughts and prayers for them both, and of course for Joe, from the East Coast?

when Joe makes a post I always include from his TIWWA family .

I read this and can't stop thinking about it. Sending Joe and his lovely family every strength and positive thought I can muster.

Oh My.  I know that is not good news, and my heart breaks for Joe and his family.  I will still, however, pray for miracles and lots of them for Joe.

[Walkabout]

Joes last post is he is now in rehab.  he is staying  strong , at least on the outside , for his family and friends for which he is very grateful for all their love and support .
