Almost over

Joe's fight is almost over.

As I write this, Joe's renal system is in the process of shutting down. That's a fancy way of saying that his body isn't flushing the toxins that build up as we eat and drink. The Doctors have said that this is the end, and it won't be long. We all love Joe and we are going to miss him terribly.
But...
There is an end to pain. And we believe that Death is not the end - that Joe will niether forget us nor will we forget him until we meet again.

We love you, Joe.
