You know that dream, we've all had it. The one when your falling and you can feel the fear deep down in the pit of your stomach, you want to scream but it just won't come out. I think that's gotta be what my dad is feeling, but he hasn't woke up yet. Hasn't felt those pins & needles all over his body, that rush of adrenaline, the sweat that beads up down your spine, and the thought of holy shit.....
He had a bone scan today (Monday Oct. 18, 2010). 3 spots of concern. 1 in his back, 1 in his pelvis & 1 in the lower left femur right above the knee. So..... big deep breath, sigh. What does that mean? I will tell you what it means, it means more freakin' shitty news.
We are leaving for Seattle tomorrow. We will start with testing on Wednesday, and meet with the surgeon on Thursday. Hopefully we will start getting some answers because right now we really don't know anything except he has Invasive Esophageal Cancer, a broken arm due to soft bones, and 3 dark spots on a bone scan. Some answers is all I want. At least then we can set a game plan.
Ok it's time I get off this negative pony I've been riding. On a positive note: All the heart testing dad has had lately he has passed with flying colors, his colon biopsy's all came back normal, and he has been very positive (on the outside anyway)
Until next time: Becky's quote for the day: Treat others with the respect "you" deserve.
