My brother-in-law was diagnosed with liver cancer 4 years ago. They cut out what they could, but I believe it had already spread into the colon and intestines. They cut out a lot of intestine also. He is suddenly extremely worse. Eating very little,( he worked up to a few weeks ago), and isn't getting out of bed. She says he has no flesh or muscle left on his body. He's just a skeleton. She has three teen sons at home, and nobody has prepared them. She is afraid he won't make it until Christmas, I'm 3,000 miles away and don't know what I can do to help. I have told her to call Hospice, for that may give her some relief, but my question is since he's still walking, is there a chance he could go suddenly?
