my dear sweet father has always been strong and healthy. this summer he started getting very tired and had flu like symptoms for a few weeks on and off. so on july 12th we took him in for a check up...and 4 days later they found cancer in his stomach. 2 days after that they found spots on his liver.
on august 1st he had 40% of his stomach removed along with all the cancer that was in his stomach. but, sadly...they found that his liver was badly damaged. about 30 tumors and his lymph nodes are heavily infected as well. the colon has a spot also. his liver is too far gone. too many tumors spread out too far. we can only hope at this point.
but, i am doing everything. i have googled everything and gone to youtube.com and gotten at least 20 books from the library. we go to whole foods and we juice anything green. he now drinks smoothies to add weight. and we put soy protein powder ( from GNC) on & in almost everything we can. he was holding steady for awhile. but now can't eat much at all. we are trying all we can. never giving up as long as he has no pain. he needs lots of rest all day long. he sleeps about 9-10 hours a nite and needs a 2-3 hour nap a day. but he doesn't sleep all day long, yet.
keep the hope, do all that you can. fight with everything you have to help the situation. i have read some amazing stories. faith and prayers are so powerful. keep me posted as i will you. feel free to hit the private reply and email me.
peace, hope and hugs to you and your family, kris
