I'm so sorry, Gayle. {{{Hugs}}}. I pray that the doctors will be able to keep him as comfortable as possible for as long as possible.

When my Dad was diagnosed with cancer in the early 70's, he too made the decision to forego chemo and radiation, since the cancer was already so far advanced. The doctors had told him that even with treatment, he might possibly gain an extra 2 or 3 months. Dad decided it wasn't worth the additional misery of the treatment, and refused it. Sadly, sometimes that is the only reasonable action to take.

You and your family will be in my prayers.
