My Grandpa - Cancer Surgery Tomorrow

**king2005** · 08-25-2009, 09:49 AM

I've been trying to work all morning & its not going to well as I have a 1 track mind right now... My grandpa (with grandma) is coming to Toronto (5-6hr trip from Sudbury, ONT) Ontario today to have Throat Cancer Surgery tomorrow (aug 26).

As soon as they arrive I'm off work until thur (very sweet boss). I'll be spending the whole day with both of them today, & tomorrow I'll be with Grandma so shes not alone as I'm the only family for 300km.

I know PT prayers work, so if people could send good vibes to him, I'd appreciate it.

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.
