mike, all of you are in my prayers. Jimmy V said it best, don't give up, don't ever give up! My uncle died a few years ago from the same thing, docs gave him 3 weeks, he lived 13 years, so if he is a fighter he can win, if not, turn him into one! If none of you folks have ever seen the Jimmy V speech at espns espy awards, I urge you to get it somehow, it was the most moving thing I have ever heard. It will lift your heart and spirits!
