Six months ago, my Grandpa was given six months to live. he has stomach and liver cancer, I believe it is in his pancreas also, and during the last six months he was on treatment for it. Well, treatment didn't work, and he is just happy to have made it past the six months he was given.
The first thing he did, was talk to all of his kids and grandkids. My brother, sister, and I all spent at least one whole day with him, just talking. A couple years ago, him and I restored a '51 Chevy... we didn't get it entirely put together before I went to college and moved away.
Anyway, he's hoping to live through March, just relaxing and trying to make sure my Grandma will be okay without him. They have not been apart more than a few days during their entire marriage.
I won't go on and on... but, it's all just sad and definitely not something I've ever had to deal with until recently.
