thank you both cheryl and ezjim... im always cool and collect around my dad, i usually dont breakdown until the kids are tucked in bed and im alone at night.. my biggest concern with dad is his energy level. he is on the 50 fent patch and norco as needed.. basically he is in bed 24/7.. they did increase his synthroid about 7 weeks ago, which is about the time he started spending more time in bed.. they re-tested his tsh levels this past wednesday.. now the ENT wants dad back in next thursday for the dreadful biopsies.. dad just seems so out of it.. i pray every night and i stay positive.. i have to for him and my mom.. thank you both again for your responses..
xoxo
