Very scared could use some hugs and prayers

A little background history on me: My dad was diaganosed in Feb with brain cancer. It was a very advanced tumor and the mortality rate is very high but we still hoped and prayed. He had been doing well until last month and these past few weeks he has very rapidly deteriorated. He's been very lethargic and confused. Well early Monday morning he woke up very awake and oriented and told my mother this was it and he was going to die and to tell everyone that he loved them and to say goodbye. My mom called my brother and I in a panic and we rushed over. Well the good news is he didn't die that morning but ever since then he's been a little pre-occupied with his death. He made my mother go and take care of funeral arrangements yesterday so she would be calm when she does. He has been very alert lately which might be a good thing but I know sometimes people get a "second wind" before they go. We also started a new treatment on him in effort to shrink his brain tumor so another theory is that the medication is causing him to act this way. I'm not sure what to think anymore and now I find myself constantly living in fear that any day now could be it. Chat Icon

Could it be possible that the new treatment is working? What do the dr.'s say about it? I'm so sorry you have to go through this, I can't begin to imagine what it must be like. All I can think of to say is share as much time with him as you can... and hopefully he'll be ok. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Very scared could use some hugs and prayers

Chat Icon I don't even know what to say, I cannot imagine what this is like for you and your family Chat Icon

All I will offer you is some hugs and prayers in the hopes that the tumor is shrinking and that things are actually looking up for your father

My thoughts are with you!

Re: Very scared could use some hugs and prayers

I just want to thank everyone for their kind words and prayers. My father has been doing a little better lately. He even cracks jokes from time to time. He has an amazing spirit. We went ahead w/his request to make his funeral arrangements ahead of time despite our reluctance but I guess it'll make things easier in the long run. Once again thank you all for letting me lean on you guys for support. You guys are like a 2nd family to me. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
