Not Good

Pretty sure the brain tumor is continuing to grow as Ric is back close to the place he was before we found out he had it. This afternoon he is unable to get himself to stand up from the chair. Each day this week he has gotten weaker & less able to help get himself up. Last night and this morning I had to literally pull him to sit up in bed which is no fun as it hurts him and it wears me out. He was unable to help me get him to sit up at all. He is back to 136 lbs so it's alot of weight for me to be pulling up. He did walk this morning with the walker very slowly to the kitchen for breakfast and then to the recliner and he was not too stable. For about 30 minutes I stood by as he said he was going to stand up but was totally unable to. His brain is not sending the signals to where they need to go. In his mind he wants to get up but is unable to actually do it. I am concerned about getting him in and out of bed as I cannot lift him. Rocky is leaving the Fire Dept as soon as he gets relieved so he can come help me. So needless to say we REALLY need some prayers right now. Not sure where we are headed in this ride right now but it's not currently not good. Family - sorry if this is where you are finding out about this but I literally cannot call you to let you know this. There are too many of you and it is what it is.
