We got this text from our Dad: The VA called this morning turns out I do have lung cancer, they have me scheduled for a barrage of test to see how severe it is & then they can formulate a plan of attack. They’re trying to get me to my 78th birthday. lol What ever happens the greatest title bestowed on me was “dad”. It’s been my honor to be called that by you 3. As I know more I’ll let you know.
Sorry for the bad news. Had a family member diagnosed with stomach cancer recently. It puts a shadow over things.
Thank you for sharing. I’m sorry to hear about your bad news as well. I hope you and your loved ones make lots of great new memories and have plenty of time to do that!
Damn I’m sorry. You captured the feeling beautifully
Thank you!
Sorry to hear. Waiting to learn more can be the hardest part. For what it’s worth, this internet stranger is hoping that it’s one of the more easily treatable forms.
Please be kind to yourself, and try to be kind to your family members (without taking any egregious bullshit from them). This may bring out sides of them that they hadn’t shown before.
One of the hardest things if this drags on will be allowing yourself to live like normal. You can’t live your life just waiting for the call that things have taken a turn for the worse, but you also can’t ignore what’s going on. It’s a fine line. I wish I could offer better advice, but you’ll have to find the balance that works for you and that you can sleep at night with.
Just… good luck.
Thank you! I enjoyed reading this, good advice. I’ll keep your pointers in mind.
Im sorry you got this. Im sorry your family got this. Stay strong💪
Thank you!
How awful. Prayers for you and your whole family.
Thank you!
