Shirts, shoes, a bathrobe, a favorite pair of hiking shorts?  The hat they wore on a day-off that still smells like they just walked out of the shower? We can let go of so many pieces of cancer but it is so hard to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I got rid of most of the "stuff" that filled this house during Leroy's cancer battle.  You'd be surprised,( or maybe you wouldn't),to know just how many pieces of equipment is necessary to manage a life once this disease has settled into its final stages of battle.  The bed,the machines,the wheelchair, all went out the door [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many years ago Leroy had a procedure called RFA...radio frequency ablation.  He actually had it more than once and it was designed to turn the tumors in his lungs to ash.  It certainly wasn't intended to be a cure-all, but it helped stem the metastatic tide of his cancer for a while.   He wrote [...]]]></description>

Your brother sounds like such a brave man.  I can't even begin to imagine what that procedure was like...painful, yes, of course, but just knowing what the surgeon had to do to get the radiation placed properly...well, I [...]]]></description>
