Hi Amy, just got back here after about a month, I am older than you but just went through all of this with my mom. It was so scary for me at first, and then when the treatments all started,it was like jump into gear and get it done. she was diagnosed end of april and all summer was treatments, chemo and radition. so i kindof know how you feel right now. on a much brighter note, everything is going well and we are just looking at improvements everyday! if you ever want to email me feel free. Your dad is going to be fine! This site helped me so much, with all of the postive responses and answers to all of my questions.
