This is still a work in progress, I have many pictures to scan and post yet. http://www.geocities.com/scottwilsontribute/index.html

I just wanted to say hello to all, and I hope you are all doing well. I sneak in time to time and check on everyone, but I have not posted. It has only been one month (yesterday) since Scott passed, and it has been rather difficult to accept/handle. And, I am trying to get a handle on my work again, which is a challenge on it's own. I feel like I have forgotten everything! But- I will be back! In the meantime, take care. You are all in my prayers. Renee

Charlotte- My heart goes out to you. I am so sorry to hear of your loss of Rich. Renee

I just wanted to take a moment to let you all know that Scott passed away yesterday, at home. His passing was very peaceful. I was drawing his medicine up when I noticed his breathing seemed labored. I told my Mother in law that we can skip the AM meds and just sit with him. We were holding his hands, he took a few deep breaths, I told him to let go and go home, to Jesus. I told him I would meet him there. Once I said that, he did not take another breath. His passing was peaceful, and the way he wanted it, at home and me beside him. Thank you all for the support you have given to me. In the short time I have been visiting this board, I have found the best support and comfort, above any other. I hope once my healing begins, I will be able to help someone else walk down this road, and not feel alone. I do not know how to post an obituary, but if anyone wants to view it you can go to www.courierjournal.com, his name is David "Scott" Wilson. Thank you again, I love all of you and I am still praying that God will continue to bless all of us with his wonderous love. Renee

That is great news! Cameron and I have 1 thing in common, we share a birthday.

Hello all: Just want to let you all know that we are home from the Hospice inpatient facility at Norton's. I will now care for Scott from home. They are allowing me to administer his medication through a pick line. And, I can call hospice anytime I need to. Hospice will stop by to check and make sure everything is going ok. Scott is VERY happy to be home now, as am I. Thank you all for the thoughts and prayers. I will try to check in from time to time and see how everone is doing. Renee

Hello All: I am home only for a few minutes, and wanted to send an update, and ask for prayers, PLEASE!! I took Scott to the ER Tuesdays morning sue to low temp (96.4), cold to the touch, sweating excessively and vomiting. Needless to say, they kept him. These problems were fond to be due to a tumor in his pancreas. As of now, they are doing radiation on thie tumor in the pancreas to aleveate the pain. The Liver is not functioning properly neither, due to mets. His Bile ducts are blocked by the swollen nodes, and new tumors. They also found 2 new mets on his brain that they will NOT be treating. Because Scott had WBR in February, doing rasiation will cause "mush brain" as they called it. As of yesterday, his kidneys stopped functioning, they inserted a cathedar because the bladder was full, and also cauing a lot of pain. His pain med (Dalada) was doubled yesterday. I do not have to tell any of you, Scott will die very soon. The Doctors estimate 2 weeks, or less. I am going to do everything I can to bring him home, once they gt his pain under control. I hope I can get him here. I have promised him many times, I woudl not let him die in the hospital. Hospice came to the hospiatl to meet with me and I have made arrangements for them to come home with us. If possible, I will bring him home tomorrow. I hope I can!! Yerday was a very bad day, not only the pain, but dimensia started. I can not even begin to tell you how I feel, right now it realy does not matter, he is priority. Hopefully, I will be able to give an update tomorrow, if I get to bring him home. Please pray for his pain to be toloerable, and for his death to be peaceful. At this point, that is all I know to pray for. Please overlook all of the typos, I am rushing and not correcting anything. Thank you all for the prayers I knwo you will be sending us. When you pray, please also pray specifically for his Mother- Joye, Father-Doyle, and brother-Steve. This is very hard for all of us, and I pray for his family, especially his Mother. Renee

My prayers are with Denise and her family. Renee

Welcome Matt- Before long, you will find this board to be a very important part of your daily life. Glad you found it, there are MANY wonderful people on this board. Good Luck!! Renee

Dawn- I really can not add much to what everyone else has sent you. But, I did want to tell you that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your Mom. I hope that no other areas are found in the upcoming tests. Renee

Good luck Kate. Prayers are with you!! Renee

Cat- You said exactly what my Father in law said. He is a snow bird, lives in Florida in our "real" winter. He was making fun of us because we were complaining it was too hot. I know, you Floridians welcome 84 degrees. We we Northerners can't take it.

Sharon- I am so sorry to hear this. My prayers are with you and your family, I know this is an expremely difficult time for you, and for your family. Renee

When Scott was dehydrated, the first thing the nurse look at was his tongue. You are looking for white, if she is dehydrated, it will look a little "hairy". I know that sounds weird, but that is how the nurse was able to tell just how bad Scott's dehydration was. Good luck to Mom!!

Prayers going out for this family!
