I'm going to see my parents again.

My dad called and asked me if I could come and help out for a few weeks. He's really tired from the radiation treatments, so I'm leaving Saturday for their home in New Mexico and staying three weeks. I will still be around because in the evenings, they go to bed early and I'll have my laptop. LOL He has a doctors appointment while I'm there, so we'll see if the radiation did any good or not. Keep your fingers crossed. Other then being tired, I don't think he has any complaints. Not bad for an 87 almost 88 year old with lung cancer. I've been very lucky to have them as long as I have and I know I'm blessed. We're going to celebrate his birthday a month early while I'm there. That'll be nice.

Hugs, Patt

Fingers crossed that the radiation did the trick.

Thank you, Grey. We don't expect it to have taken it away, but making it smaller would give him a few more years with us. He always says he's ready to go, but we're not ready. It's the ones that are left behind that have a hard time dealing. I'm praying for good news.
