This must be so sad for you and you must have many, many questions as to why he won't have conventional treatment. I watched Steve have 7 weeks of treatment and not once did he seem as ill as your brian. I feel sad for Brian that he didn't give it a try and that in the end he's chosen a harder road. But it's not for me to say what he should do. I suppose he know's his own mind and trust me I know how hard it is to live with a stubborn man. But I do feel very sad for how hard this must be for you. You must be an incredibly strong woman to be able to go through this. My thoughts will be with you as you travel this painful road.
