Dennis - all the best to you and papa gremlin!!! My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

So good that you were able to find and help him get to the care he needs. I know the hospital is rough, but with you at his side your dad will get that extra care that no med can match. My own father had two strokes, and just sitting by his bed holding his hand seems to small and ordinary... but it really does mean the world!

When you have time, reply and keep us posted on how your dad and yourself are doing. We totally understand you will have few chances to log in - no worries.

We'll be here waiting and wishing for the best.
John

Oh my... SOOO sorry to hear this, man! :sad:

You don't have to apologize at all about not being around for some time.

All what's left to do is to wish you and your family much strength over the next weeks!

All my thoughts are with you.

I apologize for not popping in sooner but I hope you'll accept my belated well wishes for you and your family. I've lost family and friends to cancer as well as seen those close to me survive it. A loss isn't easy to take and I admit can feel like a shock (even if expected).

I want to wish you much comfort and healing for you and your family and much strength so that you all can get through this difficult time together.

thanks for all your support, prayers and well wishes, it means a lot....well looks like hell will change to purgatory next Wednesday....if everything goes good he can go home with visiting nurses...he still has brain cancer but at least he can go home for however long he has left
