We called 911 and by the time they got here from the next town over he was basically gone. They said a blood vessel must have burst. They said it was likely either from radiation damage or that the cancer had started to erode one of his arteries. It was the most horrific thing I have ever experienced. He had been so strong through all of this and he was so scared at the end. I am glad it happened quickly though in the grand scheme of things. I can only hope that he is now at peace and watching over me and Morgan.
Thank you very much for all of the support you gave us during these last few months.
