My father-in-law died almost three years ago of brain cancer. What was absolutely astounding was how fast the whole thing happened. One day he was having trouble coming up with words, a few days later a nurse friend of the family suggested he see a neurologist, a few days after that he went in for surgery. Surgery actually makes things quite a lot worse for a while because of the swelling, but the theory is then they recover and bounce back. He never did. He didn't die however until a year later, from complications and unexplainable infections.
I'm really sorry for you and your wife, Rich, as well as his children.
