General Surgeon,  's  Response
For this person, to relieve him of any pain, discomfort, difficulty in taking foot, weakness and such symptoms, and be managed in a institute specialized in providing palliative and end of life care to such patients. He can remain mostly symptom free and pass on peacefully. This is what we all would like, if we were in the same situation.
