On the way.... "Father God, guide his caregivers hands, hearts and minds."

My dad survived the first major round of chemo to treat his lymphoma. He now has to have a treatment every 6 months. So I kinda know how you feel. So do yourself a favor... Worry more about the things you have control of, like your lovely daughter. I know I would not want our daughter to miss out on her children worrying about me.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your Dad. I know this is a stressful time for all of you, I lost my Mom to cancer and a brother so I know what you are going through.

[finn's mom]

Add me to the prayer list. My brother is a leukemia survivor, I will pray that your dad is victorious, too!

Thank you. :'''(

Just spoke to mom. She said her and my brothers were there with him during the treatment but he insisted that they all leave when it was done so they wouldn't see him get sick.
He's got two more, one tomorrow and one on Wednesday then a small break. Does anyone know, if he should need a liver transplant (which he probably will), is it difficult to find a compatible liver? Would us kids need to see if we were a match or is the liver an organ that can be donated by anyone? I feel like that's a stupid question.... like I should know.

Sending all my best wishes- I can understand that all that is just too much for your family. But please don't forget your sweet baby girl- and look at her to get a smile in these hard times.
If I'm right then a liver cannot be donated by a living person, so it's about finding one of somebody deceased. But let's first pray that he gets over chemotherapy and take it from there.

Prays coming for your dad.

I'm sending my best wishes that your dad pulls through this. It's hard on you all, but try to enjoy your baby.

(((hugs)))

He's gone. He passed away about an hour and a half ago.
I am in shock. Neither me or my sister got a chance to say goodbye.
I don't know what to do with myself.
Instead of comforting my mom, I said "oh now what".
I haven't cried yet. Hubby says it hasn't sunk in.

Thank you. :'''(

Carmen, no questions are stupid questions, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm not a medical person. I'm not sure if the liver can be taken in part from a family member and transplanted. I know we have some medical experts on the board.
I believe the liver will regenerate in certain cases but I would think they would look for a compatible liver from someone that has died and is donating their organs. Not sure though.

I just want to wish all of you the best again. My best friend started chemo last week. She's on a continuous pump system feeding into a pic line. I know a little bit about how you feel too. it's very very hard to remain stoic and be supportive without breaking down yourself. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}
