Ok all ..I am in a quandry ..sort of.
My 14 year old daughter told me yesterday on the way to cheerleading practice , That her Best Friends dad may have throat cancer..
I am sure you all knew my reaction , and the feeling I had in the pit of my stomach . I told Kay to tell her friend that we knew some GOOD Dr's and that If he wants to talk I am here and will do what I can . He is a divorced dad, so I just figured I could be someone he could talk to because I understand.
SHe is LIKE NO WAY ......I am NOT saying anything .. I guess that his daughter overheard him and isnt supose to know anything at this point. And I just tried to get Kayla to tell her about the Drs andeven if she dosent tell her dad Yet. I don't know much, I don't know if he had a biopsy yet or why they think it . I know he smokes and drinks , Kayla says that is why he has it . I explained it could very well be , and maybe he dosen't and only a biopsy will tell , and that I had cancer and didnt do either.
I guess my dilema is ..WHAT DO I DO >.. do I mind my own business, and wait until it is more public . I mean his daughter isn't supose to know. But I want him to go to GOOD Drs or a CCC or somthing. We live in a small town and in our county and the 2 surrounding not alot deal with this .. I KNOW THAT !!!! You have to drive atleast an Hour. I am not close to him , we speak in passing .......BUt I just feel so obligated ..our daughters are BEST FRIENDS !! and He spends alot of time with my daughter ....
What do I do ?
