With my computer being down and sick for the past several weeks, i haven't been able to give any kind of update on my dad and thank everyone for the prayers that have gone forth for my dad and family. Thank you very much.
Really want to thank everyone that has been praying for my dad. Please keep him in your prayers. He is really have a hard time with it all. At the moment he is getting over the Flu that has gone through everyone lately and his immune system is shot. So it's taking time to heal but is getting over it. The cancer has spreaded into his back somewhat, and the pain is really bad. The surgery seemed to have gone good the tumor is out snd has heal up nicely, and now he is in the middle of radition treatments for killing off the rest of the cancer cells that were left in his brain from the tumor.
They haven't even begin working on the rest of the cancer in his body. The Lung specialist and the neosurgean said they needed to get the brain first being it's the most imporant, it controls the rest of his body. My dad had lost some of his motor skills, he speach only got a little better, we all are still having a hard time understanding what he whispers to us. His writng isn't to good either but he can write to us better. He will need to go to a therapist after he has gotten through all the kemo to get his motor skills fully back. That will take sometime before being able to. He has most resorted to his bedroom for most of the time. Though rest and sleep is only coming short lengths of time he just isn't getting what he needs. Plus he has lost lots of weight and has become very fagile.
Please keep him in prayers?
God Bless
Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.
