Well, today is day three of radiation for my dad. So far so good with that. I have been reading up online about side effects of radiation and there are some but none have gotton him yet. He had his PET scan yesterday morning. The doctors called him yesterday evening and told him that the tumor was so much bigger than they though, almost 8 inches. So they would like to discuss doing chemo. After his radiation today he has to go meet with the doctor about starting that. I know there are tons of bad side effects to doing Chemo. Hair loss, weight loss, nausea, vomiting...etc, etc! That really makes me nervous. I do not want to see my dad in pain or hurting. That is what is going to make all of this SO hard for me and my whole family.
I talked to him last night... I had to call him. He was on my mind soo much which he is ALL day but last night he was on my mind A LOT! I almost felt like i just wanted to hug him so tight and never let him go. So I gave him a call. We talked a little while and I started to cry. He told me please don't worry that everything is going to be okay. These doctors and nurses are working to make him all better and he'll be back to normal soon. :(
That made me cry even more... I'd love to think that but for some reason it's just so hard to. Then this morning i woke up to 3 text messages from him through the night of pictures of us and him and he said , "I love you Ms. Boo , Don't you worry about anything. He always has called me that since I was a baby. He is actually going hunting this weekend...I guess it will be good for him to do something that he loves.
