I have some very sad news. Guy has a very aggressive and rare cancer called cholangiocarcinoma. He had been complaining for about 6 weeks of abdominal pain and was being treated for gastritis. I finally took him to Copper Queen Emergency and he was told he needed to have his gallbladder removed. They sent him to TMC and the doctors there revealed a tumor in the hepatic and bile ducts that had spread to outside lymph nodes. There is no reasonable treatment at this time for this type of cancer and he has chosen to go on Hospice. He will miss hiking in the beautiful mountains of southeastern Arizona and being part of the Muleteam with so many like-minded people who enjoyed all that nature had to offer.
If people want to stop by to see Guy we live at 47 Wood Canyon but please text first at 541-905-5098 to see if it is OK. Thank you so much.
Love,
Loretta
Over three years ago, Guy was the hike leader on my first Muleteam hike. He was so friendly, and as ever, lead an excellent adventuresome hike. I have met Loretta at Joan Reichel's home... what lovely people Guy and Loretta are! My heart has been so heavy upon hearing of this yesterday. The pictures are so appreciated, and show that Guy is an important friend to many. Big love to Guy&Loretta and Muleteam friends.
