Ohh thanks guys. I am sad but OK. I have had a lot of time to process this. We still dont know if the cancer is just at the lymphe nodes or has affected any other organs. We will know today later.
Again, these events, made me lose patience with H. That email I sent yesterday was calm and controlled but also strict and very...direct and I meant every word in it, which was that, unless something changes to the better, I am out. For good this time. It's a matter of self respect.
Oh, sweetie! I am so sorry to hear about your dad's Dx. Right now, that is where you need to put your focus. He, your mom, the kids, and your other family. Now is the time for your H to step up to the plate and be the husband, father and most of all MAN that God intended for him to be. I truly do believe it is in him, but sadly I think it is buried under a ton of stuff he is not willing to face. While I hate to think of the struggles facing your family in the days ahead, I am praying that your H will step up to the plate.
Blessed Father, we adore You. To You we give all glory and praise, knowing that you are a good God whose ears are attentive to the cries of your children. Lord I ask You to turn your eyes to this family as they face this new round of struggles. Father, only You know Your plans and purpose in this situation, only You know the outcome. Father if it is Your will, I ask you to bring healing to Maria's dad. Let his doctors be amazed by the miraculous power of Your saving grace. But father, if this is not Your will, I would ask that You be compassionate to your child and keep his days ahead as pain free as possible. Let this family feel the comfort of your presence in this an hour of very real need. We seek Your face Father, knowing that all prayers and petitions reach You through the saving grace of Your precious son, Jesus. In his name we now pray, Amen.
Just the first of many, my dear friend.
Living God's blessings with grace and dignity~ SMW

Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. I Corinthians 13:7
As expected the MRI showed that the nodes have increased by 30% in 3 months. One of them has "lost" its shape. Soooo, we now have to wait for the oncologist to tell us what to do. He may suggest nothing since my dad is so skinny and weak. We;ll see. My parents dont know. My dad is in a bad shape emotionally already and we chose to give him a phony diagnose.
Thanks for the prayers. I am OK. I still have some hope left and a lot of faith. K
Oh Maria, I am so very sorry. I have no idea what it might mean that one of the nodes lost it's shape but it doesn't sound very good. I'm amazed that the doctors don't insist on telling your dad directly. It's good that they allow you and your family to handle it was you see best. Sometimes not knowing for certain can keep a good mental attitude in the patient.
I'll continue praying for him K.
