KeithLDick Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 I hope your Dad get to feeling better, Keith.My prayers are with your Dad, you, and your family.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Thanks all of you...I'll post what I did in Marty's post on the g4 Forums so you won't have to go there to read it... From my G4 Post: Thanks all of you..Basically we knew he had Emphyzema and I guess he had Skin Cancer in the late 70's.. I was gone for a verylong time traveling with various Rock & Roll Bands...Anyways my Sister told me he had it taken care of, but when I moved back to my hometown I noticed he had a largebandage cover something on his chest.. I didn't ask cause he's a grumpy 'ol guy & 88-years old.. heheWell I had to take him to the emergency room one night cause some food got stuck and the nurses were asking him about it..He said he spilled paint thinner on himself years ago and he didn't get it off quickly enough.. Well that wasn't true..Anyways I again took him to the EM Room about 2-weeks ago because he was having alot of problems breathing.. Then I sawthe X-Ray.... Basically what happened was he had a tumor inside right where that bandage was on his chest and it grew into his left lung and collapsed it.. The doctors could do nothing because Cancer has spread everywhere and said take him home and let him live out his remaining days.. they gave him a few days to maybe a month or two..So I moved back into my home where I grew up and have been taking care of him 24/7 along with the help of *Hospice*.. It's kind of hard right now because I am still out of work and luckly I just put a computer back together so I could access the net from here.. BTW, Dial-Up really Sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..I have alot of catching up to do with him since I was gone for so many years and I have very little time to do it.. Atleast I have had the last year & a half to see him before he goes..Anyways thanks guys and sorry for the long post.. I'll be around most every night now since I am here and I have a monitor so I can listen to him from my old bedroom upstairs..It sure is kinda strange & creepy sleeping in the room I grew up in.. hehe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blim Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 Hang in there, Keith!Reading your post made me smile when you wrote about the "paint thinner". Sounds like your Dad is a bit of a character!! And that he doesn't want a lot of "fuss", which is why I bet he is feeling very blessed to be in his own home with you! And as Echobay says, Hospice is great, use them, listen to them, they are angels. And in case your Dad hasn't said it yet, "clean your room!!" Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
