but my father is very sick with a form of lymphoma (cancer) and I found out on Monday that has spread to his bones. He's in a hospital in Miami now, and he's doped up on pain medication which is supposedly not a good thing. He's been in/out of the hospital the past 6 weeks or so, and he's not been truthful with us about what's going on. He's a stubborn SOB and I know he doesnt want us to worry about him...but now that it's gotten worse, we're all scrambling to get him taken care of. I will be driving down to Miami on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning to go stay with him a couple of days. Please remember him in your prayers. My dad and I aren't very close, but I can't imagine him not being there.

That is horrible...you and your family are in my prayers.

my thoughts are with you (Deb suffered from Hodgkin's Lymphoma and came through in flyin' colors) since I know how stressful cancer can be to a family.

Btw, Which type of lymphoma is he suffering from?

So sorry. Hope he's OK.

That's terrible, Brandon. I'll definitely keep your dad in my thoughts and prayers.

I have no problem saying a prayer for your dad.

Good luck to him!

Praying things get better. And please be careful on your drive.

It's spread into his bones, from what my dad's wife told me on the phone a few days ago. It had caused his spleen to grow to the size of a football, which they removed. It is now causing problems with his kidneys and they think it has spread to the bones, which would mean a marrow transplant I believe.

I am leaving Friday afternoon to go stay with him thru Monday. Thank you guys for all your kind words... As much as we are all different, I know we all care one for the other, so I really appreciate it.

No problem. Thank goodness for mercy and compassion!

Stay safe and I will also let members of my church know...so they will pray for your family as well.
