My Dad died yesterday of lung cancer, while at home about 5:30 in the morning. We had spent Friday with him and he was quite lucid most of the time, but you could see he was having some difficult times as well. He was diagnosed about two months, so he didn’t suffer too long, and actually told us Friday he wasn’t have much pain at all. Thank God. Please say a prayer for Mom.
As for me, I’m getting stronger and gaining weight. I’m still having rectal pain, but I have to live with it and learn how to manage it as best I can. I have my quarterly CT scan this month to see if the cancer has spread, so wish me luck!

Dear Dale and family …
I will keep you, your mom, and dad in my prayers. It’s such a blessing that you were with him to say goodbye. I am sorry for your loss; losing a parent is so tough.
Please know that you have many friends sending you supportive hugs and gentle thoughts at this time.
