Hello Nelie, Brenda, & Joanna,

Thank you SOO much for all of your responses! I was really torn between a) making a huge fuss or b) letting my parents decide on their own. All of your responses really convinced me to make a stink. And I'm SOOO glad I did because they both realized it was a STUPID and UNNECESSARY risk! My mom is going to go and my dad is going to stay. He has been enjoying the past few weeks-not working, playing golf, etc., but now he's ready to get his head in the game and really start be diligent with this fight. (Staying out of the sun, NOT traveling, monitoring himself better...)
I'm SO relieved! I hope you're all feeling well!

Thanks again,
Stephanie
