SAD-ok

My brother is NOT doing well. He has cancer of the throat and it has been spreading. He can hardly eat and has trouble breathing. I think it’s because the cancer is growing and blocking his throat. Today he was suppose to have a feeding tube inserted. I don’t know why they didn’t do it. Instead they are suppose to do it tomorrow. I was NEVER close with my brother. I never liked his lifestyle but I feel sad for him  and his children. My sister who was always closer is a wreck.

On Saturday we are going to visit. They live in another city. We are just going for one night. I hope it will be long enough. All I really want to do is visit my brother so we don’t have to be their that long.

It will be upsetting for sure. I try NOT to think about it.
