Robert was moved to hospice Tuesday night.  No word on anything yet.  Just that the move was made and he was settled.  Matthew is going to visit him Saturday.  

Robert is not doing well.  Went home Friday was back in er today.  Brain tumors are not responding to radiation.  Friday they were giving him 12 - 18 months.  Now not sure.
