Brian please go and see him. I would suggest that you call first to make sure that he is not in the process of puking his guts out or cleaning up after he has messed himself. He doesn't need the embarrasment of a visitor busting in on the scene in addition to everything else. Ask if he is up to a visit and if he needs anything that you could bring with you. My uncle died from cancer and welcomed me stopping buy to shave him because he liked the way I cleaned the shaver after. You just never know what little thing may give them pleasure. My 76 year old neighbor just died on June 6 and I happened to be there when he died. It was one of several trips that I made to see him and talk about anything that came to mind. I was helping him back into bed and he appeared to pass out. His heart muscles were so weak that they just gave out completely. It was a week after a pacemaker was installed to bring the heart rate up from 50 to 70 BPM. His heart muscles just couldn't take the extra strain.
