Thank you so much for your replies. It really means a lot to me that you both took the time to reply.

I'm being as strong as I can. My dad is actually handling it better than any of us (my mom (his wife), my brother and sister). We're there for him as best as we can be...it just seems so hard when it's constantly one blow after another....one bad doctor's appointment after another. But, like I mentioned before...dad is so optimistic. He said he was going to beat this...and I believe him.

Thank you again for your replies. If you all every need anything from me, please don't hesitate to message or e-mail me!!!
