Dear Bill,
The main thing for you to remember now is never give up hope. It is possibly harder on a cancer patients family than it is on the patient. I hope your Dad is a fighter. The will to survive is very important. I will be praying for him as well.
If it had not been formy wife and children, I dont think I would have ever made it thru my treatments without givingup. You and the rest of yous dads family are almost as important as are his Oncology caregivers. Believe me, he will draw from you and your caring and sometimes just your mere presence will be a source of strength to him.
