My Dad is really sick

My thoughts are with you and your father. I hope things turn out ok!

 

My hugs, thoughts and prayers are with you all. This must be a tough time for you guys. Let us know how it turns out.

Hadi
PS get him to quit smoking!!

 

He should definitely stop smoking. Both of my grandfathers had the habit. I pray that things will get better.

 

:O

oh my, this sounds rather serious. Lets not think of the worst Mom but rather pray about it. I doubt it's burning away the linning of his stomch cuz if it was blood would have been comming up with his vohmits (i have had a similar experience) however him not eating can result into serious short term effects, has the doctor illaborated on this yet cuz i think the rapid loss of weight is kinda dangerous, especially for a diabetic (again speaking from experience).

As u said earlier, u and ur dad have not been on eye 2 eye terms but if u really are not ready to lose him yet it's time to start having those eye to eye terms he needs to be on a convalescent diet or warm foods and fruit or vegetable juices. Maybe it's time to pay him a pumpkin soup visit nuh?

love,
Alex.

 

Becky, you hang in there and know that you have thoughts and prayers from Milwaukee, WI..

 

Be his positivity.

It's okay to show weakness, but right now, he really needs people to be strong. He's scared, you're scared, but you have to be upbeat FOR him.

And I'm thinking of you, and of him. If we all stay positive and hopeful, then something good will happen. It may not be mind over matter, but we can get damn close.

oh my gosh, now i know why he was curious to lung cancer. He smokes! Well he shouldn't be smokeing tobacco; he should be smokeing what's good for him. Some weed.
And i am not too sure of Campbells, i am not too big on can food
But if u like i can send u a basic recipe of how to make a nice "Country Style" soup. soup is kinda a jamaican tradition thing...

OH i almost forgot, u said he is off sugar. Since we now know he is diabetic that is a plus, however it's going to take more than just that to keep his health under control and if i may; never, i mean never, get him any artificial sweeteners. ie. "sweet n' Low", "Splenda" etc. I learnt really bad things about it in Biology class. PM me iff u wan the 411 on that. but trust me, artificial sweetners are not what u want to give a middle aged diabetic.
and taking the kids with u to him was a nice jesture
What u have planned up for father's day? IDK what to get or do for my dad as yet.

 

My prayers are with you and your family, Becky! (*hug*)

 

my dad smokes and drinks a lot!!! i hope your dad is getting better now becky

 

Sorry Becky - I missed this before. At least things sound like they are looking up from when you started this thread. Also sounds like your sister in law has got him pretty well pegged.

Hope it all continues to improve.

 

I'm sorry you're dad's ill - I'm thinking of you and him (*hug*). But I hope the tests go well and that he continues to be good with the smoking less (*hug*)
