Hello my Followers of Gary's Battle with Cancer.WHICH NO LONGER EXIST.CANCER IS GONE! WOOOHOOO!.However,We need to pull him back into our thoughts and prayers once again.

I spent the night again at the hospital and everything was going great, his oxygen was holding steady and then about 1:00am everything changed.

I sat beside him on his bed in fear trying to help him bring his oxygen levels back up.....I will tell you all I was very scared for our Gary, he didn't know that at the time, but I was very scared.

Unfortunately, his levels dropped to another alarming level and Dr. Burrows, said OK that enough we have to put him on assistant breathing...that just broke my heart, because I couldn't stop this from happening. However, the attending Dr.which I cannot pronounce his name but was absolutely as wonderful as the other Dr's and allowed me to be in the room with Gary during the entire procedures he did. They took a camera after putting him under anesthesia and found an enormous amount of mucus blocking one of his lungs..(causing him to lose oxygen)..It made me feel better that I was there with him during this because not only is that what Gary would have wanted, but I got to see that it was worth putting him under and Not to mention that he always says I make him feel safe when I'm with him and that is why I believe he was OK with doing this.

However, he still has the breathing tube, however, he is breathing on his own and Dr. Burrows wants a CT Scan before they remove the tube which as of 3pm today hadn't happened yet. The worse part is he is under a lot of medication but has been alert and knows whats going on and has had to feel this tube that is in his throat and I could not do anything but hold his hand and say I'm sorry. It's broken my heart to see him like this.

Hopefully this setback will not last much longer....I left him in the care of the nurses and Dr's so I could come home and feed Kitty, which I know he would want me to do because he loves my kitty Binx as much as I do.

Everyone has been so wonderful and supportive to him through this, then again I will say mostly everyone, there is one person that may think that sending two text messages is considered being caring and loving they need to re-think what caring and loving really is.

However, he's in good hands with me and I will take good care of him. All of you that do care can bet on that! When he moved to Maryland he not only found a person that absolutely loves him no matter what but he was here to find the Best Doctors to fix him...... Please keep him in his thoughts...HE WILL MAKE IT THROUGH THIS!

I will update again later.

No pics of Gary tonight! maybe tomorrow
