A friend entered hospice this week. I met him through Loni. I have actually only seen him face to face once, but we have sent messages back and forth of the years and I don't think I am wrong when I call him friend.
Today's news is he only has hours left. He fought a brave fight against sarcoma. He was actually treated through the same clinic as Raymond at M.D. Anderson. That is why I ended up meeting him. Before he made his first extended trip I had lunch with him and gave him some notes and ideas of what it was like to be a patient there.
He is loved by many, and will be missed probably more than he ever expected.
My heart goes out to the family. Having gone through this process, I know what they are facing.
I know it has been hard on Loni too. They were good friends.
Yes, a most difficult week.
