There's a lot that can be done to make your dad more comfortable. Look into hospice. They've been a godsend for my father and his wife. Truly.

Much love to you and our family,

I'm truly sorry to hear this channelluv. Your visit again will be precious and much needed.


At this time, my father still "appears" to be healthy and functioning as normal. But next testing is a CAT scan and it must be done within next 2 wks.

At this time, all we can think of is he certainly won't be living for many years as expected.

What is quite deceiving on the surface for now, is that he genuinely appears to be healthy guy otherwise, if it weren't for the cancer. He doesn't engage in vigorous exercise or anything like that. He doesn't smoke, drink and actually has low blood pressure.

Sigh. I live 4,300+ kms. west of all my family.
