in Lung Cancer #1
WELL MY DAD HAD HIS FIRST SURGERY. HAD THE BIGGEST TUMOR REMOVED FROM THE BACK OF HIS BRAIN. THERE WAS A CHANCE HE WOULDNT WAKE UP FROM THE SURGERY AND BE IN A COMA. WELL HE HAD THE SURGERY AND IT CAME OUT VERY GOOD. AND HE IS JUST FINE BUT A HEADACHE. mY FAMILY IS SO BLESSED AND I WANT TO THANK ALL OF THE PEOPLE ON HERE THAT HAS GAVE ME ADVICE AND SENT THERE BLESSINGS. THE ONLY BAD THING FROM TODAY WAS THAT WE FOUND OUT ITS NON SMALL CELL AND THATS HARD TO TREAT. BUT MY FAMILY HAS BEEN STRONG AND I HAVE A VERY GOOD FEELING THAT MY DAD WILL BE AROUND FOR MANY MORE YEARS. HE IS A FIGHTER. I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE AGAIN. AND I WILL KEEP UPDATES ON HIM.

    Well I went to go see my dad
    Well I went to go see my dad today and he is looking really good. He is a little grumpy because he has really slepted since thursday night. They keep coming in every hour or so to do neurology tests to make sure his brain is working properly. His color is really good though. My mom said the Dr. said he might be able to come home Monday. I am so excited. I cant wait to get dad home so I can help my mom take care of him. After he recovers from surgery they are going to do radiation on his brain to shrink those tumors and then start on chemo for his lungs. Thank you all again for the blessings and prayers. God has surely been good to my family.

    Great news
    Linz,
    So glad to hear that your dad's surgery went well. He sounds like he has alot to live for and that's why he's fighting so hard. He'll probably do better once he comes home and you & your mom are taking such good care of him. Just let him know how much you love him & thank him for being a great dad.
    Take care & good luck when your dad gets home and with his future treatments. Keep us posted, okay? Carole
