Finally some news!!!!

Ok, I want to apologize for it taking me so long to update... I know a lot of people depend on this to learn about my dad.  For the past month and a half we have been fighting an 'infection' and haven't really gotten any news.  Since then my dad hasn't gotten better, in fact he has gotten worse.  We have excused the pulmonary specialist that wasn't really doing much for dad from our services.  Dad had a PET scan last week and an appointment with his cancer doctor.  We learned that the spots on his liver have grown and there is a lymph node by his stomach that is now inflamed.  He will be starting chemo again this week.  Dad was also told his cough is just something that is not going to go away.  So we are all still learning how to deal with that as well. 
We are all doing good, just staying busy working.  I am now officially full time and super excited about that!  Dad has been getting out more and doing more activities, which is great!!!!  I will keep you updated on how he responds to this chemo, and how everything is going.  Have a good week!!!!
