Family Meeting

My father called a family meeting today….he has been battling Non-Alcoholic Hep C for more than 20 years….he started a trial medicine to see if it would kill the virus….success!!!!! The HepC is gone!!! They wanted to do a Ct Scan last week and today the nurse called….”we have the results of your ct scan, and we see spots on the liver that are cancerous”

My heart is hurt…I have cried once…I can’t find that full release to express how I really feel….I am numb perhaps? Is something wrong with me? I love my dad. He’s been there for me when no one else was….I’m to young to lose my dad.

An MRI is scheduled for the 25th to determine the stage of cancer. If it is not to far along he will be sent down to IU in Indianapolis, IN for testing etc for a liver transplant….if it is to far advanced, well then I have 3-6 months to love my dad the best I can!

He has no insurance, we don’t know what he is going to do. God I pray you send an angel, make a way for his treatment/transplant/funeral to be paid for!

It’s hard not to……

Out of all the people who I thought would at least stick up for me a little, he didn’t. My father has become useless to me. After all we have done for him providing the funds for the testing so he could get better and this is how we get repaid. And besides that I’ve been sick all week but some people take that as having an attitude. If they only knew what I dealt with on a daily basis. So I sit here in my dining room listening to my children knowing that I will change things, I am definitely not the person my mother was, and I will not be like my father either!
