Life....
They decided to wait on surgery for dad as they wanted to do a biopsy first. It is a malignant tumor, and they will either do chemo or radiation to shrink it before they do surgery. They took out a quart of fluid while they did the biopsy. Now it's just waiting for the doctor to decide which step will be best. I worry most about my dad's attitude. He is very scared and very sad. I totally understand, who wants a cancerous tumor in them? I just want him to stay positive....that's half the battle when your sick...
Yesterday David ended up not having to work, so we decided to go on a drive, we went past Mom and Dad's and asked them if they wanted to go, but Daddy wasn't sure, because his back starts to hurt, and well, he didn't want to be a bother. Anyways, we went up to Mineral hoping to get to a couple of lakes near Lassen, but they said they were frozen, so we decided to wait til the thaw. We ended up going up to Childs Meadows and boy am I glad we did....
Do you remember this photo I took a couple of years ago?
