Mike's brother Chris

We got a call this morning from Carole that Mike's brother Chris had died earlier this morning. Chris was diagnosed last December with inoperable liver cancer. He had started chemo earlier this year and then had started radiation therapy in July. Earlier this month Chris had a MRI done and the chemo and radiation were not successful and the doctors told Chris and Carole to contact Hospice. We were planning on taking a trip next week out to see them.

Fortunately some friends of theirs had spent the night with Chris and Carole, so she wasn't alone when he died and they were there to help her.

We spent this morning calling Mike's cousins to let them know about Chris.

The last time we visited with Chris and Carole was in February of this year and we had a really good time with them.
