Loss (Control of my life): I am Garry's Mom/caretaker. The hardest thing that Garry is experiencing from my viewpoint is the loss of control over his independence.

Oh No (Cancer has spread/Metastasized): After a 12 week 2nd line chemo of taxatere which totally tore Garry down, found out that all of the agony was for naught. The cancer had become extremely agressive and spread to the liver, adrenal gland, spine and grown in both lungs. Doctor told us today that prognosis is months not years.
