Hi Benfry, What a great daughter you are, your Dad is blessed to have you doing so much for him already. I feel for you as it is easy to hear what a frantic state you are in. With good reason, as this diagnosis is never easy to hear. But be comforted honey, this is very do-able! It's not an easy treatment, be it surgery, or radiation & chemo..or all 3. We are living with the benefits of advanced medical treatment options. Your Dad will pull through this just fine. There will most likely be side effects when all is said & done. Us survivors all have some...but we got through it! Before you know it, your Dad too will be "cancer-free" Best of luck!
