Subject: HONESTY NEEDED! PLEASE HELP! DESPERATE FOR ADVICE
Date: 01/07/2008

I am 23 years old,I have a little family (my husband,myself,and newly, our daughter). My father was diagnosed with lung cancer a few months ago.They gave him both radiation and chemo.The tumors have shrunk,but not gone,and while they ran the PET,found 6 spots of cancer on his liver.To boot this situation it's in lymph nodes,not sure which or where.Oh and I forgot to mention he also has cancer in his esophagus that I believe they said isn't even curable ( at least in his situation)so I guess this dosen't look good huh? He is in his mid 60's and has had quadruple bi-pass,is diabetic,and often "not feeling well" even before ALL THESE DIAGNOSIS! SOMEONE TELL ME AN HONEST ANSWER OF HOW LONG I PROBABLY HAVE WITH HIM.I have work, live 3 1/2 hours away.I know that sounds selfish and believe me I don't disagree,but I hate feeling guilty when I still have a family to help support.I just want a realistic time frame so I can do what I can.Thanks everyone who reads this and replies,even though you're strangers,I can't express to you how valuable support and honesty is. I will take as much time from a job as needed for him,he's my world.
