Fairy Tale

If ever there were a real-life handsome prince and his beautiful princess living the fairy tale romance most people only read about, it's these two:

I took dad to see one of his doctors at the cancer institute yesterday. He was very unhappy with all the weight that dad has lost (9 more lbs since his visit 2 weeks ago). He told us that if dad doesn't get a picc line he will soon die because his immune system will surely fail without the proper nourishment. He has an appointment at St. Marks tomorrow afternoon to get a picc line inserted and then he will have a home health care service come out everyday and change his feeding bag. I know this is not what he wanted and he has been trying to eat as much as he can and mom does an incredible job taking care of him and feeding him. I think dads nausea is what is hindering his appetite. Hopefully he will put his weight back on quickly and be able to overcome all of this. He is a fighter and we need him for a long long time. Please keep him in your prayers.

Love you all and love you dad!!!

Thank you to everyone who called, emailed or stopped by for dad's birthday, he really appreciated that and had a wonderful day (despite having to lay down most of the time).

He's started physical therapy twice a week and has done very well. His therapists have been very impressed with his strength, although it takes everything out of him, he still tries very hard and never quits.

We are still taking things one day at a time and hoping that he will be able to put on some weight and have the strength to do normal day to day things.

He is still losing weight and feeling sick all of the time, so please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. He loves to get emails and comments although doesn't have much strength to respond, it still means a lot to him.

Love to all and please know how much everyone's support means to all of us!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

A very happy birthday to our sweet Dad. May you have a wonderful day filled with good friends, family, and improved health.

Happy 62nd. And MANY, MANY more!

We love you.

I've posted a couple pictures of Dad's car with hopes that he might be able to go for a birthday drive. I know he misses his car almost as much as his favorite daughter in Hawaii. :)
