It is so hard..One should be encouraged never to give up until you are on your way to heaven. Not everyone is able todo that. I would look into that medicine Kevin suggested. Other than doing aggressive natural treatment, you will just have to see how it plays out. We can only do for others what we can do and only what they allow us to do. Ask him directly, does he prefer death or would he prefer to try and beat death. It is a hard line but maybe that is the bottom line. ONly last week a friend of ours came down with severe bowel infecton and was in terrible shape, I was called and I just asked him if he wanted to live or die. So get to the hospital and he did and now doing well. Often us mere mortals cannot face our worst fears. it is hard to accpet you cannot do much when you have something to offer. Do the best you can and it is up to your Uncle. He has to choose.
Take care and drop me a line privately..mms.

I read more than I post!! I have posted about my uncle in the past. He has end stage MM and was given 3-6months today. I feel overwhelmed! I have been doing so much research I am now staring to get lost in it! He is starting to give up. His oncologist told him there were no more treatments for him. His numbers have doubled after his last two rounds of chemo. He is now undergoing radiation to help with the pain. I want him to try alternative treatments whether it be supplements, vitamins and other dietary additions. Any advice on how I can help outline this for him! AHHHH, I am just so frustrated that there is not more we can do to help those who are going through this!!!
MMsurvivor, You have been a world of help to me, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart!!
