Home » Discussion » Zola's Battle with Cancer

Well, the disease is taking it’s toll. Zola is becoming weaker every day, it seems. He’s using a wheelchair around the house now. I suspect he’s probably too weak to make any more TV shows. He tires easily when reading, possibly due to the pain medication. He’s also sleeping a lot and his appetite is low. But he’s still making jokes.

His rather sudden loss of strength is a bit frustrating to him, but he’s adapting. He has good home care. Some of the guys from the office are staying with him at night to help him get around the house, in addition to hospice care.

Last Tuesday, April 11, was Zola and Sandra’s wedding anniversary. They were able to go across from their house to the park where they were married and spend some time there. Sandra said it was wonderful. It’s certainly not easy, but she’s holding up very well through all of this–better than I would have imagined. I think it’s because of the inner peace (Shalom) she has, given to believers by the Jewish Messiah. I’m sure you’ve seen that from both of them on recent TV shows.

As Zola said to me last night, “I’ll see you here, there, or in the air.”
