Dear Nanc:
I agree with you, that the will to live is so important and with that will
come the fight. I'm trying not to dwell too much on my dad's age, etc. I
try so hard not to let negative feelings creep in but it's hard at times. I
don't want to bury my head in the sand either. And believe me, I do pray
for him and I pray that Dad will reach out to God for comfort and for God
to ease his fears.
It's good to know that you're here. It's a comfort to me to know there are
people who can really relate to what I'm feeling inside. I hope at some
point I can comfort someone else.
Dad is being admitted today at Moffit Cancer Center in Florida. I feel so
out of control because I'm here in NJ. I plan on going down there the end
of the month.
You asked for my postal address. It's Linda George, 2 Rockwell Road,
Belvidere, NJ 07823. And yes, I do have Micrsoft Word.
Nanc, thanks so much for your encouraging words. I look forward to hearing
from you soon.
God bless you,
Love,
Linda

Hi Linda,
First off don't even think about the numbers, ages or %'s. What is
important
is the fight within the person, and the will to live. As the saying goes,
God helps those that help themselves. Be there for him, remember to always
tell him what he needs to hear, and you know what that is cause you know
him
best. Pray, the power of prayer is like no other. Remember that this is
his
journey and you have to respect his choices, but you can always offer him
choices. He needs to trust his Doctor, if he doesn't help to find him
another. Always remember that the MOLs are always here for you to help you
through whatever phase you are going through. Vent here whenever needed.
I
am so happy that you have found the comfort of our Forum, which is yours
now
too. You will be amazed to feel the importance of helping some other
fellow
