My Dad

[PixieStix]

Some of you may know that my Dad was diagnosed with Acute myeloid leukemia in August.

He is on his second round of 2 types of chemo, one is part of a clinical study. They claim the cancer has not progressed. But he was admitted into the hospital this morning with pneumonia.

The cancer has caused him to be almost deaf. It has been awful trying to communicate with him through the phone. He cannot hear my words.

For those of you who pray, I would ask that you pray for my Dad?

I am so not ready to lose him

Very sorry to read of such a dire situation with your Dad. We lost my brother-in-law a few weeks ago due to cancer.
Prayers will be offered by myself for God's will to be done and your Dad to receive blessing. -Tyr

Remember Doctors practice medicine, God Heals !!

I'm sorry to hear about this, Pixie. Your family and Dad will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Thank you all so much. My sister is there with him. I have been calling her over and over and she has not been getting back to me. The problem is that my sister has epilepsy, she cannot drive and the last time she visited my Dad, she had a grand mal seizure and my step Mother has bone cancer. (although she is in remission) Her Dr wants her to do another round of chemo. She said at this point she can't do that.

I may have to contact my employer and ask her if I would be in danger of losing my job if I went to Alabama. If she puts limits on my leaving. I just may have to tell her to kiss off.

Plus I have other situations. Oh man it is not suppose to be this way. I am sorry, I am so upset

Again thank you all so much for your prayers.

They have my Dad isolated, and giving him what they refer to as broad spectrum antibiotics. He has at least stopped coughing, and his fever has not returned. I got this info from my Mom

Thank the Lord.

Pixie, God will never give us more than we can handle ( although it sounds like your limits are being pushed ) go with the flow and keep placing it in God's hands and you will get through this, you have no choice it is coming, so again lay each day in Gods hands and enjoy every moment with your loved ones !!

I was once told that death is the final step of the plan that God has for us.
“I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believe in me, though he dies, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die."

[gabosaurus]

My favorite song about the cruel inevitability of death.

Thank you all for your thoughts and especially your prayers. My Dad got out of the hospital yesterday.

It was a huge scare, but God saw fit to let us keep him a bit longer.

Thank you all. But please don't stop praying.

Prayers up for you dad, Pixie.

I lost my dad in 2003 and my mom in 2010. Both were chain smokers for as long as I could remember. Both ended up on oxygen and requiring dialysis from the dozens of meds they had to take every day. It's the part of life that I most hate....the end part.

Glad to hear that your Dad is out of the hospital.

I'm not one that prays, but I've been definitely keeping your father (as well as your family) in my thoughts.
