Not a lot known after his catscan. They are going to remove some polyps on Oct 1. Dad doesn't think the doc thought they were new - just that they wanted to get them out of there in case there were going to cause an issue.

She wants Dad to speak with his heart doctor to see if he is strong enough for surgery. She and Dad talked about quality of life. There is no way Dad wants to spend extended time in the hospital or in a nursing home. He would rather live what life he has at home.

To me and my brother, he is doing well. He walks short distances within home with walker, they get out of the house a couple times of week with transfer wheel chair. I wish he would work more with physio to build walking strength but he's not interested.

They are close to getting the stairlift now which will make getting in/out of house easier.

He is very pessimistic - he calls it realistic. He doesn't want to talk or think about it. Yesterday would have been their wedding anniversay (Mom has been gone 20 years) and tomorrow is his 81st birthday. I wish we had someone who could talk to him but he's of a cartain age / mindset. He keeps telling my brother he will probably die Oct 1.

It's disheartening and I don't know what I can do to help.
