Rammy's Ramblings

[Rammy]

So, news about Dad. He had an MRI and cat scan Monday. Showed two spots in his brain. One about an inch in diameter, the other about a quarter inch. I have to drive Mom snd Dad down to the hospital Sat for a more comprehensive scan to make sure those are the only two spots. If so, the Dr is scheduling him for 5 days of radiation to get rid of it.
He took him off the contruda because its nit doing any good. Mom says the areas in his chest are in remission, but the one on his arm isnt. They are also going to do a scan on his lungs and heart because of fluid buildup again.
Mom is doing great since her surgeries. But taking care of Dad and cleaning up after him after his accidents is taking their toll. Dad fell again the other day and its hard for her to get him up because of her limited use of her arm.
Hes using his walker now, but hes really stubborn.

So sorry to hear about your Dad Rammy, sounds like a tough road for both he and your mother.

Rammy, I couldn't hit the like button about your dad,...really hate that your parents are having to go through medical issues. Your dad being stubborn is probably a good thing...that's why he is still here, ya got to keep fighting the battle.....they are lucky to have you near them

I didn't "like" the post for the sad news, but I did it for not only "thanks for sharing", but also as "support" from another that can identify with your situation and have been thru that gate and down the path.....each step leads to a more difficult step....I'm here to support ya and if I can be of assistance to ya.....never hesitate.....

hate to hear about your dad, hope things go better. when they diagnosed my dad they told us he would have maybe 6 months but because he was a stubborn old cuss who wouldn't give up he stayed around for over 2 years. they are truly lucky to have you around.

There was a news story a few days ago out of Israel,saying their company would have a cure for cancer..all cancer, within a year. It's my hope it is/would be true, and it hurries up and gets available for all concerned. I have some reservations about the claim, but you just never know.

Hope your Dad does well and responds positively to the radiation treatments.
