Jim Goranson

From Debbie Jones:

Ben’s father-in-law…Jim Goranson has some sad news. He has stage 4 cancer which we have know for a while, but it is worsening. It is in his liver, lungs, small intestine and things are bad. He was diagnosed five years ago and had many surgeries and chemo treatments. Just before the wedding in July he had to go off the treatment for two weeks just so he could have strength to walk Jackie down the aisle.

Then, the medicine caused both his tendons in his heals to crack, so he hasn’t been able to walk for the last several months.

He then got a blockage in his intestine and was unable to eat…. the higher chemo doses caused him to get severely dehydrated and he had to get a blood transfusion.

Lastly, he went into surgery Tuesday to remove some of the damaged intestine. It took almost twelve hours. Bad news. They could not get it all, so after he comes out of ICU (Toledo hospital in Toledo, OH) the family will most likely be using HOSPICE.

….I AM STILL PRAYING FOR A MIRACLE!!
