Tracey,
I am very sorry to hear about your Dad. It's very hard to have a parent so young, so ill. My best advice is to take it one day at a time and pray a lot. Make sure that your Dad is also getting the proper nutrition. Many times, oncologists forget that part as well. My mom was diagnosed with NSCLC two weeks ago today. She is 60 and is a nonsmoker and always has been. We are scared to death and just want to "wake up" from this nightmare. I am around your age and don't have any children yet. My sisters and I are working day and night to find the best place to take our Mom. The unknown is so scary...and that's so hard too.. Where is your dad getting treatment and how is his spirit? God bless,
Toni
