Hospice

Nobody was expecting it this soon, but here we stand (or lay, in my case). After a more proper examination today, cancer nodules were found in my Dads lungs, infection in multiple organs, and in his blood. The medication my dad was on to prevent his blood clots from getting bigger is making things worse.

The procedures to help with these things will cause more harm than good. And with him not eating or breathing properly, he would not be able to recover from them very well.

So the team of doctors agree hospice is the next step. On the night Christmas Eve, my Dad will come home to us. We will have Christmas together.

We are all real sad and appreciate all your prayer and love and hugs.
