question: My step father In-law has throat cancer and has been told his white blood cell count are to low so the couldn t do the chemotherapy . He had the g-tube put in so he could be feed, but isn t wanting supplements as directed, maybe has one supplement a day, still try s to sneak a cigarette here and there. What I am confused does he have no will to live and or he doesn t care and He is 78 yrs old.
