Latest Update

Things have changed drastically with Jeff. Most likely we will not be making the trip to MD Anderson. Last night Jeff started oxygen and is only able to walk about 10 feet to the bathroom and he has to take several breaks. There is fluid collecting in his lungs.
With oxygen his oxygen saturation levels were 44% this morning (normal is 100%). The hospice nurse said that she feels he is pretty far along in his progression. I asked her for timeframes and although she said it was difficult to put a time on it she thought he probably had a few days left.
Jeff has not been eating today and is drinking very little fluids. He is starting to have a cough and is sometimes coughing stuff up, which I think is good. I apologize to any of you that might have donated money already towards our trip to MD Anderson. There are lots of family and friends that are coming by to see Jeff and everyone is welcome. Jeff has fooled all of us before and came back, so I am praying that he is just doing it again. If for there is a turn around in his health we might still be going to MD Anderson. Hope all is well with everyone.
