To all my family here.....

[Mrs P]

Im holding up ok,when i found out,i got really upset for a while,but it got easier,my dad was upset,and after a few days he is feeling better about it trying to stay positive,and im doing ok,im still worried but trying to keep a positive attitude,we are gonna find out alot monday,what type cancer it is,how bad it is etc,thats what im dreading,i just wish it would get here quick,

My granfather passed away when my dad was 41 and im 45 right now and my dad is 71 so im remembering about that and that scares me to,as we are about the same age when our fathers passed away....

Im going to see my dad this weekend just to hang out with him,it will make me feel better and him to i imagine

this is rough indeed,im scared shitless,but im the oldest kid,i have 2 younger sisters and ive gotta be strong for all of us


brother it means alot to me,more than you know for your concern,hell you are just like my real brother,it really helps to talk about it with friends


I hope i didnt confuse you any last night lol,my wife was on my computer,and i was posting with my iphone lol

My dad was diagnosed with lung cancer a few years a ago Bullseye, hardest day of my life when I found out, I was very close to him, I'm the youngest of 7 (3 brothers, 4 sisters) He actually survived lung cancer had part of his lung removed, did cemotherapy & did great after surgery & actually got healthier than he ever was, it was a life changing event for all of us, but he turned it into a positive thing..

What I can advise you is to spend as much time with him as u can, enjoy each other's company, try & keep him accupied & distracted, the most important thing is to keep a positive attitute, I believe deeply in the power of our mind, what we think & feel, we act... so, eventhough u might feel weak, u have to keep it together & be strong, the good thing is this was caught on time & that's the best defense against cancer.

Hang in there & Keep us updated

thank you very much Mrs P!!!! you know excatly where im coming from then,i will do my best to keep strong and i always keep him occupied,he hasnt even slowed down since he found out,we all live on a farm,so theres always something to do,and believe me,he stays busy,i have a pretty good feeling about it since they caught it early and the fact that his blood work was clear,hoping the cancer is not anywhere else in his body,but hearing your personal story really helps me so very much,and i cant begin to thank you enough,I promise i will keep you updated for sure!!! again thank you hon,you've made me feel better and look at the whole thing in a different light

I understand how u feel Bullseye, I can really relate, When I went threw it with my dad I felt a whole range of emotions. Some days were good, and things seemed to be like they used to. Other days were harder..

Your situation is very difficult, I don't think u can ever prepare yourself for going through a situation like this.
During this time u should try & be open about your emotions, it helps to talk about your feelings IMO...

Spend as much time as u possibly can with your dad & let him know how important he is to u.

Try to stay positive & keep negative feelings away, eventhough it seem impossible at times.

Wish the best for your dad !
Stay Strong !!!

Mrs P thank you very much for your post,i know and understand now what i haveet to do,i cant get down in front of him,i havet just to be strong as i can and help him feel good and spend all the time i can with him,it something i guess no one prepares for like you said,it just hit me like a rock


Ive only seen my dad cry one time in my while life......until today

boh him and one of my sisters lost it in the parking lot,and i had to put them both in the car,and that just ripped me into!!!

I seen my dad cry when his father passed away 31 years ago,my dad was 40 at the time and i was 16,and when i seen him cry,i brokedown,since then ive never seen him show any kind of emotion until today,its hard to see your parents get upset and cry,i tell hon,its tough.....something you cant plan for.....thank you for you and Mr P's concern,thoughts and prayers,it means so much to me,more than you know

Dang, extra prayers going out tonight. I hate to be the one to say this but it needs to be said - if he doesn't respond to chemo, you might be looking at 90 days instead of 6 months. I only say this out of love, brother. I say it so you will realize the urgency of spending time with him NOW.
