Forgot to mention that since his doctors at the hospital he is being treated at all know he is an alcoholic (because he was treated for his alcoholism at the same hospital which is how he got diagnosed) they won't give him any pain meds when they send him home. His cancer has spread to his bones. Bone cancer pain is excruciating. He had a skin graft done on his leg. That too is excruciating. I walked in to apt. today and he was crying from the pain. That is hard to deal with for me, and I can't imagine what it's like for him.
