Himself in 1959
My father, Vertrees Hollingsworth, was admitted to hospice today. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer over a year ago and it has recently metastasized to the lungs. Sophia, Dunn and Piel were with him over the weekend. Caroline will be there later this week. TPG & Alice hope to make it to Lexington in early August. Mary Anne and Eleanor and I will visit in NC later in August.
He's not in pain and, as always, has a great attitude. I'm glad we can start hospice early enough for it to be a real help. His oncologist is the Medical Director of the agency seeing him. I've dealt with hospice professionally for a couple of decades and it is a tremendous service.
We welcome prayers from all those who know himself or any of the rest of us in the family. It hasn't been an easy year+
