My Pop has lung cancer and I need some help!

Sorry to hear about your pop. Reading your thread brougt back sad memories. Everything you described about your father happened to mine. First the lungs then the bones then the brain. My father was a big guy it just ate him up. When he reached the point that the doctors could nothing. We brought him home and hospice took over with the help from family and friends. We made him very comfortable. I was sitting next to him when he took his last breath. I looked at the clock it was 6:10. He played that number everyday it was the address he grew up at. I had a great relationship with him but one regret I nerver told him I loved him durning his illness. It still haunts me today. Feburary will be 11 years. Be strong your family will need you. Talk about all the fun and good times you had with pop, not the cancer or the if only's. I don't want to sound harsh but enjoy what time you have left and tell him how you feel in your heart. God bless your pop, you and your family.

You people are awesome!!!!!!!
I couldn't have have asked for help from a better group of folks, thank you!!!
I am the joker in the family and always try to make everyone smile or laugh.
Especially during these times.
We have been talking some, about closer things than before. My Pop is not an emotional man. He's the kind that stays calm when a bomb goes off and goes ballistic when you break a glass. :)
I'm gonna try to get him to go fishin with me!
 
L6steel,
I've got cancer in my family too from my mother's side, lots of it.

G-d bless you and your family and I'll be praying for your dad.
 
I lost my Dad to cancer in his 57th year. He was diagnosed after a long, what they though was a bout of pneumonia and lived only 3 months. We were very close and although it was many years ago I still miss him. I guess the up side was that he didn't suffer long. Thoughts and prayers to you and yours.
 
Mike, of course I've known about your Dad's condition for some time, and I have no info to help guide you. I do know that your faith and your strength of character will get you and your family through this.

Hard to believe I lost my Dad to cancer 25 years ago and I still feel his loss. Still things I wish I could learn from him and his 70 years on this earth. Take this time to learn as much about your father as you can, and make sure he knows how much you love him.

Stay strong my friend.

Phil
