The doctors are working on a treatment plan. One of the options is some new clinical trial. Anyway, I thought now would be a good time to update. If you would, please send good thoughts to my dad. Thanks.

Donger, not sure if you've seen the "Vice" special on cancer treatment by using viruses (including HIV) as a cure, but perhaps you can convince your physician to push your father's case in that direction.

There have been some absolutely amazing clinical results in those trials.

Baby Lee posted the link to it recently and if you have cable it would be in your on demand feature if you have HBO. Since it appears inoperable, and all other options exhausted, I'd see if your pop is willing to give it a go.

Oh, and all my best to your pops.

Yes, indeed I have. I'm hoping that that is what the trial is going to be.

Have you heard about this? http://www.cyberknife.com/cyberknife...?langtype=1033

Hopefully, there is access to one in his area.

prayers sent.

Different circumstances, but same fears just about a year and a half ago so I can somewhat relate. The toughest part was not knowing anything. Hang in there.

I'm pretty sure I can help with the seizures. But it will send him on a 3 day mental vacation. Lots of love to Donger Sr.

I'm sorry to hear that. Prayers are on the way...

Yes, I had, but I will pass it along. Thank you.

Donger,
Positive T's&P's for your father.....

Donger, prayers to you, your dad, and rest of family. So sorry to hear about this, and hope he is able to pull through, and you are able to get even closer to family and lean on each other.

Hi Everyone:

My Dad was just admitted to the ER. He has lost complete control of his legs and is hallucinating badly. He still recognizes me but he is barely lucid. He also has some kind of issue with his lungs now.

I contemplated not asking for this, but if you would, please say a prayer or send good vibes to my father at this time. I'm really trying very hard to be positive, but I suspect that we're entering into the period that I've been dreading for over a year.

And, if you also would, please say a prayer for my mother. They have been together since the were 14 and 16 (now 70 and 72 respectively), and are the most symbiotic couple that I've ever seen. She has been my father's primary care giver since this all began, and absolutely refuses to cease that care, but it's really taking a toll on her.

On a side note, please do take some time tomorrow to wish your fathers a Happy Father's Day. I have a horrible feeling that this will be my last one to say it to mine, and it would give me some comfort if a I knew that this post has some positives beyond my asking.

Thank you,

Donger
