Description

This is my brother, Marc, at his house in Morongo Valley. He has just collapsed onto the sofa, suddenly overcome with a feeling of fatigue. Our Mother, a nurse, is on the right coming to attend to him. Marc went into a coma and after about a week had two seizures. He was alert and wide awake after that, but disoriented. This was an extremely unusual side-effect of chemotherapy he received for lymphoma. He passed away about 16 months after this photo was taken. (date: 2001-12-28)
