Hi Scott and Lou. Bowies cancer was in a advanced stage and is showing all over his his body.Because this cancer actually destroy bone mass(hope I explain this correct)the bone then passover to the kidney and in Bowies case it became a too big job and they collapsed. His kidneys are back to 100% now. It's just amazing what the Dr's can do these days, and what they don't know today might be available very soon. You sound calm and together,I'm sure you handle this in a very positive way and that will shine trough to your children and most of all Lou. I've spoken to other carers that have a loved one with cancer but not M M, we (the carers)all suffer silently and have to stay strong for our family and our loved one. It's hard and sometimes we are forgotten because the focus is on the patient but stay strong Scott. Look forward to hear from you soon. Barb. 🙂 ... View more
