Coming home...

This pas Monday, we received the results of the last Thursday's biopsy. The results showed that the cancer cells have come back with 3 times the forces they first were. The cancer has invaded the bone marrow and into the blood stream.
Last Monday night Bruce started to get sick to his stomach and was found to have internal bleeding he was then re-administered to ward 57 at the hospital. Bruce is being treated to get this bleeding under control. Bruce's wish was to come home and be with his family. Today Bruce will be transported by ambulance to the Golden hospital where he will be taken care of. Depending on the status of the bleeding, we hope he will then be able to spend some time in his home, with Emilie and I.
Although this is a period of great sadness, we will be closing the B&B so that we can live this period with privacy and to be able to welcome friends and family into our home.
Love you man. Love you forever.
M.F.
UPDATE 'Coming Home'
Beth here, updating the blog. Bruce's bleeding is under control and he looks and feels GREAT !!!!
We are just waiting for the ambulance transfer from Calgary to Golden.
Bruce will be transfered to the hospital in Golden with the aim of having him at home very soon to be with his girls.

    There is a special little girl that has been talking about you all week.....she was out the door and in the truck last night before Peter could even get his shooes on. The girls cried all night after she left because they did not want her to leave, they had a good time together.
