Hope


by: ML on Tue, Jun 19 2007

In October of last year my dad was diagnosed with stage IV Lung Cancer it had spread to his lymph nodes. His oncologist said there was no hope, but he would give him “comfort chemo”. Needless to say we were all very upset. We sat down as a family and my dad told my mom and two brothers what he wanted before and after he was gone. Om May 24th we went in to get the results of his latest CT, we were very nervous and scared, his doctor told us that he could not give us any better news, and then said that the cancer was GONE, his lymph nodes were back to normal, and even scar tissue was even shrinking. So for anyone who may read this, “DONT GIVE UP”, beleive in the power of prayer, and thank God everyday. Good Luck. I hope to be able to say the same thing about my mother-in-law when she finishes her chemo in September for endometrial cancer.
