My Grandpa - Cancer Surgery Tomorrow

[king2005]

Thanks everyone

Hes one of those men that hasn't seen a Dr. in decades & is now walking death. He has Throat Cancer, Prostate Cancer (too advanced), and had kidney issues which put him in the hospital a couple months ago. He just managed to pull through the Kidney thing (I don't know what happened, he doesn't tell anyone anything)...

I do know the Dr.'s have told him he HAS to start telling Grandma the truth & to start bring her with him. So we are fulling informed for this surgery. My grandpa doesn't want anyone to worry, but we're not blind. We know he's been unwell for the past 15+yrs, & I saw him coughing up blood over a yr ago, but I kept it to myself as he asked me too. I also didn't want to worry grandma, but I prob made things worse because he didn't tell the Dr. about it until recently *CRAP*... sooo I feel kinda bad, but I do respect & love him a lot...

gotta run

Your grandpa will be in my thoughts and prayers as he starts his treatment. I am a 5 year surviver of throat cancer so I know what he faces. If you find he would like to talk to someone that has been through this, Pm me and I will provide him my email address. I will be praying for you and your family too because I know it takes a toll on everyone involved.

I will keep your Grandpa and all of you in my thoughts and prayers. I hope everything turns out well.

Some people like to keep things to themselves and not worry others. If my Grandfather would have told me to keep it quiet, I probably would have done it too. Bless him. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

I have a friend that has colo-rectal cancer. She won't be honest with the doctors because she just doesn't want to bother them. When someone is like that, there's not much you can do but be patient and hope and pray for the best.

Grandpa and your whole family are in my thoughts and prayers.

This hits close to home for me, as my brother had this too. Fortunately it was caught very early and was treated with radiation only, and he did not have to have surgery. He is doing well and cancer free, and only gets a slightly raspy voice if he talks too long.

Hoping for the best possible outcome for Grandpa. Hang in there and be strong for him and the rest of the family.
