Stopping Treatment

The latest scan show progression on Inlyta. From the scan report - Dennis' liver demonstrates severe worsening of the mets with innumerable hypodense lesions scattered throughout all segments of the liver. Over the weekend Dennis and I had a discussion about quality over quantity and we were planning on asking the hard questions associated with that decision. When we learned the news of no further treatment being appropriate I was personally relieved the decision of quality over quantity was no longer left to us. We have now been referred to hospice...

We met with the hospice nurse yesterday, made a list of needed supplies, and received those supplies yesterday afternoon. Most are not need at this time, but we will have them available for the future. The nurse talked with the social worker yesterday and he will stop by this morning. I have started the paperwork for FMLA and will take the time when needed.

Surprisingly, I'm keeping it together remarkably well...
