O/T...Please pray for my dad....

[A32Flathead]

I was at work this morning when I get a call from my brother in England, he tell's me that my Dad's been diagnosed with Lung Cancer.

Aparrently the wonderful UK health service (PUN INTENDED) have spent the last 6 or so weeks treating him for a chest infection....

Anyway, good new's is that it's a VERY small tumor, and he starts radiotherapy treatment in the next 10 days or so.

If your that way inclined, please offer up a few word's to the big guy upstair's, it all help's.

Thanks.

Thank you all for your prayers & good wishes, I spoke with my Mom earlier, seem's he is in fairly good spirits, as he was expecting something a lot worse.

Hell, he even went out for a few beers last night!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Thank you all again.

Dave

[Roothawg]

Sorry to hear the news. Try and make sure that he focuses on the positive. Everyone will want to share their "horror stories" about their experiences. They all mean well but it gets old.

[296 V8]

When I was 23 I lived in a po-dunk, no stoplight havin' town in the wilds of Maine. I was short of breath, had severe edema in the belly and ankles, and instead of pink, I was purple and ashen grey. My mom who is a retired RN took me to see the town quack and the doc said I had cellulitis...

My mom didn't believe it and took me to a doctor in Auburn and he literally took one look at me and arranged a cat scan that day. Open heart surgery repaired the calcified pericardium I had. My whole renal system was shutting down and I was dying.

She was a government doctor supplied to po-dunk towns...

[AHotRod]

Dave,
Prayers will be made in his behalf.

[Lefty]

I will pray. Be optimistic. Its not the death sentence it was 15 or 20 years ago. Good luck to you and your family.

[BELLM]

Will do. Best of luck.

[slammed]

For your fahter's health. And for the heavy load to be lifted from your familes heart's.

[chad]

[safariknut]

My thoughts and prayers are with you and family Dave.Three years ago(August 9th)I was operated on for squuamus cell carcinoma in my throat and neck and I thank Him every day that I get to open my eyes and see my chest moving up and down.He WILL get better!

[Missing Link]

Man that sucks. My thoughts are with him and you and your family. I know too well how it is to lose a very close member to that shit. Tell him to kick that shit in the balls and then come over to PA and have a few beers with me. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif Seriously man, my thoughts are with you and him. And the offer stands if you all ever get to PA. Tell him to rock on!

[guy with a wrench]

Like Killer said.

I lost my father in December to lung cancer that had spread to his brain.

Stay positive, this shit is scarry, but it can be beaten. I'll be thinking good thoughts for you and you dad.

[dusty]

I know where your comin from. Dad was told to go home and gargle with salt water by the specialists. It took a nurse practioner in his small town Drs. office to suspect cancer and order the necessary tests and evetually treatment but they didnt get in any hurry. All the hoopla about early detection must be because they know its gonna be at least 6 months before they start doin anything! They eventually took part of his lung and did radiation. So far so good.
Our thoughts are with you and yours in an extra special way. dusty

[HOTRODPRIMER]

There are a lotta different treatments and just as many types of lung cancer,,,,,I lost my dad after a short battle with the type that is associated with asbestos. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif

I lost my mom 4 months earlier to cancer,,,,,,,,,,mom lived 18 years after her first treatment,,,,,,,,a strong will to live and faith gos a long way. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Your family and you are in my prayers. Danny

[straykatkustoms]

Hey Dave,

Keep the faith!!!!! our God is awesome!!!! My uncle had days to live, this was 8 months ago, he is still with us today. Prayers are with you, your dad and the family.

Happy Trails,

Mick

[general gow]

Dave, My prayers are with you and your dad. He'll watch over him, I know.

[atch]

32,

i can't think of anything to say that someone hasn't already said, but i know the power of prayer and i'll be praying for your father, you, and the rest of your family.

[traveling boot ho]

my dad had an "upset stomach" for months before it was determined he had non-hodgkins lymphoma,,,2 bone marrow transplants in two years before he gave up on me from the lymphoma and the resulting luekemia and other complications,,,

as long as your dad STAYS STRONG i think he'll continue to improve,,, the initial treatments aren't sooo bad if they can get rid of the cancer,,,,

i hope and pray that they do,,,

love,,,
miss ho
