ON SATURDAY [LAST WEEKEND] I WAS HAVING LUNCH WITH MY MOTHER AND SISTER AND I TOLD THEM TO GIVE ME AN HOUR I HAVE TO GO SEE BOB. A GROUP OF US (FIVE OF US) WE HAD KNOWN THIS WAS COMING.

Doctors had even told him not to make long term goals because July was the further he was to live.

BOB HAD INFORMED US SO WE KNEW THAT HE WASN’T GONNA LAST VERY LONG. HE HAD BEEN TOLD BY HIS DOCTORS NOT TO MAKE ANY LONG TERM PLANS. IN FACT, HE WAS TOLD IF HE MAKES IT PAST JULY HE WOULD BE LUCKY.
