Stewart’s niece Lisa Flagg, who lives in New Jersey, tells News Channel 5 all the tests doctors have performed on her uncle are coming back positive.
She says doctors think his mental state was either from dehydration or the chemo medications.
There are 2 fundraisers set up for Stewart - one later this month and another in June.
In addition, The American Cancer Society's Relay For Life of Western Palm Beach County has donated 2 Jet Blue airline tickets to Flagg so her family can come visit him.
The society is also donating items for the upcoming fundraiser.
