Closer

Yesterday (Wednesday)evening Matthew started vomiting.  He took anti-nausea meds and extra pain meds, but woke during the night.  Vomiting continued this morning, along with a lot of pain.  The hospice nurse, Dominique came (she's wonderful by the way), and she gave him his options.  She explained that this was disease progression.  It is likely that he has a blockage caused by a tumor.  Matthew has chosen to return to the hospital to try to get some relief from the pain and vomiting.  He was admitted to MDA this evening.  They will work to get pain and vomiting under control.  Mom reports that he is resting now, and is very groggy even when he wakes. 

There are so many things I want to say, but for now, I ask for prayers for relief from his symptoms.  

If you still would like to write a letter, I encourage you to do so.  Time is not a friend.
