Update on my stepdad....

So I tried to avoid posting about this because I know some people were complaining that people only post bad news but I am so upset and I need to vent a bit...

I posted that my stepdad had a seizure a few weeks ago. Well it turns out that his brain cancer has returned. He has now had several seizures and has since lost the feeling in the left side of his body. He is going in for surgery on Thursday but they cannot remove the entire tumor because it is in a area that affects his mobility. They do not know if he will ever get motion in his left side again and they do not know how much of the tumor they will be able to remove...

Last year when he had this surgery they removed all of the tumor that was visible to the eye. They did Chemo and Radiation for 7 freaking months and it STILL came back a year TO THE DAY later!! Now if they can only remove some of the tumor it seems to me it will only spread that much more faster! I am so sad and I don't know what to do anymore. I've known my stepdad stepdad since I was 8 and I consider him to be as close to me as my own father. I also have a 9 year old brother and I am so worried about how it will be for him if something happens to my stepdad since they are so super close...

I am so sorry for the long post but I am really truly hoping anyone and everyone can pray for all of us right now... It seems the prayers of me and my family are not doing enough to stop this awful disease from spreading.

Oh My goodness...I am SO sorry. This is such a difficult thing. Cancer *****. Nothing else to say other than that. I hope the surgery goes well. If you need anything please don't hesitate to ask. I have a cousin who is 3 years old now. He has cancer on his optic nerve. They can;t remove all of it because he will go completely blind. He is already blind in one eye. They do chemo and all and it just keeps it from growing It hasn't shrunken yet. We are hopeful that it will. It is such a hard disease...I wish you and your family the best!

And I forgot to say before, you are allowed to talk about ANYTHING you want..regardless if it is happy, sad, exciting, boring..whatever. We are all hear to listen. If people don't want to hear things that aren't happy then they don't have to read or respond!
