My wonderful daughter in law, Lindsey called me tonight. Richard had a biopsy of his liver done today. The news is not good.

Without treatment, he has 2 weeks to a month to live. With treatment, and the doctors weren't optimistic at all, he might have a year. Because the cancer wasn't stymied by this last aggressive chemo treatment, they don't think that this next treatment, chemo and biochemical infusion will help much.

Also, my son said that if the treatment makes him as sick as this last three months of chemo did, he does not want it. He wants to spend the best quality time he has left with his wife and son. He doesn't want to spend it laying in bed, curled up and not able to move because he is so weak and sick.

Thank you for all the prayers that were offered. I am heading to Washington this week to be there with him and his wife and son.

Melinda
