Re: Please pray for my Dad......
First round of Chemo was yesterday....8.5 hours what a drag . I Spelled my Mom after 5 hours so she could get some rest....he's real weak after his surgery but we are hopeful the chemo will start kicking the growths a$$ soon and get him some relief....

Re: Please pray for my Dad......
I wish you (plural) well. Please keep in mind that people generally get really sick after chemo. They're tired (and he already is), their stomaches are all messd up...it's very normal to have these things happen.
I guess all I can offer now is that he needs to listen to his body. Your body knows what you need. If he's craving a certain food or drink (like apple or grape juice), you guys need to go get it or make it for him. Those foods contain certain vitamins that his body is lacking and that's your body's way of taking care of itself.
And support, I can offer support. Thanks for posting an update. If you need anything, or need to bounce a few things off someone - just mail me. I'll do the best I can.

Dyno, thanks for the update. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. One of my mother's best friends is on chemo every day with four days off a month. But she still goes dancing on Saturday night. Keep up his spirits, it will make a huge difference.

Re: Please pray for my Dad......
Well its over, It was a long hard fight but my Dad passed away last night at 9:15pm. I was just with him at 6;30 he was sitting up in bed and eating pudding . Thought he was going to give the cancer another run but he just didn't have anymore fight left in him. So I challenge everyone of you today to call and tell your Dad that you love him if you cant physically hug him....I wish I could. I lost my Dad and my best friend.Keep my Mom in your prayers they were married for 49 years and this will be haed on her as well.
Thanks
Don

It is sad but true:
His suffering is over, but for his loved ones it continues. I will pray for your family's recovery.
