When she called me with the initial diagnosis, it literally floored me - my knees went weak and I sank to the ground. Thank God, when they biopsied her lymph nodes a month later it came back clean but that was a horrible month of fearing the worst. <br /><br />It's been 10 years now and she's still cancer-free. She sees her dermatician monthly and has had several patches of skin removed but all clean. She's also a fanatic about sun exposure now, but still goes diving and runs marathons.<br /><br />Anyways, a long-winded way of saying your dad is going to be fine.

That's ...I think the first comment says it all. That's what's up.<br /><br />Damn tho, I am sorry to hear about your pops and other family member and my old man is right. He has always told me, "Life is a shit sandwich and every day is another bite." While it comes off negative, I have always taken an important lesson from it - life continuously presents us with things that are hard to swallow, but we swallow anyway and keep on keepin' on and do it all with a smile. Dying is easy, it's living that's hard. You prove daily that you are up to the task for the latter.Tim Eskridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726852156343545666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7238780007621149539.post-34194005629941889092012-11-09T10:50:46.664-08:002012-11-09T10:50:46.664-08:00Um, you will not die of cancer and neither will yo...Um, you will not die of cancer and neither will your dad.
