Hello Aww,
I am so sorry to hear about your brother. I know how expensive and difficult it is to have cancer and no medical insurance. My mother-in-law has stage 4 oral cancer and every penny spent are paid by her children. Emotionally, physically and financially it is draining her children/inlaws. But despite the amount of dollars we have spent the cancer keeps on coming back with a vengeance.

I admire your brother for his decision. It is very noble for him to make this very painful decision. I feel that the will to fight the illness and the will to surrender are both equally noble acts.

As for us care givers we are only there to support whatever plan they decided to make.

Wishing your brother, his wife and you the best. May you find strength and courage this very painful situation.
