My brother is 68 yrs old and has 4 kids, the youngest is a downs boy (age 24)
1 grand daughter age 4, with a second sue any day now.
I don’t recall if he had a scan in the months after surgery. But, he was recovering and doing well on Sept 11.

@john5398 I’m so sorry, John. Cancer just stinks and every family is impacted the planet over. I know how quickly it can hit and just clip us off at the knees. I had my own cancer journey several years ago. I felt in perfect health, even tramping through miles of deep snow on snowshoes until 3 weeks before I was gravely ill and rushed to the hospital. It ‘hit’ me that quickly, though brewing for months before hand.
It’s especially hard to lose someone as young as your brother, leaving kids and grandchildren behind. At 68 he was robbed of many more years of life but sadly, cancer doesn’t play fair. Thinking of you and your family during this difficult time ahead, with a gentle hug.
