My brother went in to Boston on 12/15/ 2023 for tongue cancer, they cut out half of his tongue, cut him ear to ear to get rid of some other cancer there, cut his leg open to get some muscle to make a tongue & patch up his throat, how I don't know he lived through that, he was around a 115 pounds when he got home, went through radiation & Kemo for months made it through all that, the nurse named him little TOUGH GUY, he had a cat scan and they found more cancer behind his heart they could not operate on that, so they did some super Kemo on him again from there he got pneumonia. He passed away Monday afternoon around 5:30 we put him to rest today. He could not eat from 12/15 the last 3 weeks he could have a tablespoon of water every couple hour, he had a feeding tube, very sad to see, he never complained 64 years old. CANCER SUCKS
 
Thanks Guys it really means a lot to me. Garys Lifes journey in a way describes David. He always ate vegetables, I never do, I always told him you keep eating that shit it's going to kill you. At the wake I heard more stories about him I never heard before. I am Happy for him he is in a lot better place right now.
 
Sorry, just saw this post now. Very sorry to hear about your brother. You're right, cancer sucks. And it sucks watching someone go through something like this. It sounds like he went through quite a lot but is now pain free. I get the feeling that he was really something else to you and the family and will truly be missed.
