My Brother Dan

[bigbumble]

My brother Dan is dying of inoperable liver cancer. Neither alcohol or smoking were the causes. ( nonsmoker, extremely light drinker)

A year ago last summer he traveled with me to NARAM ( the national model rocket contest). We went on a side trip to Yellowstone that he enjoyed immensely. We camped at the same campground we stay at during our childhood trip "out West".

Oh, no! I'm so sorry to hear that. :(

*hugs* I'm so very sorry to hear this. I had an uncle who had liver cancer, and I know it's not pretty. Keeping you and Peter in my thoughts.

I'm very sorry. I'm glad that you got to do the NARAM / Yellowstone trip together--things like that are really special and it's so easy to never get around to doing them. I saw Yellowstone once when I was a girl and was very impressed by the hot pools and gysers (and mistook Yellowstone Canyon for the Grand Canyon too, but that's another story.)

You and Peter are in my thoughts; may your happy memories be a balm to you.

I heard about that only after I posted to LiveJournal. I am sorry that I was so late to hear about it.
