Thoughts and Prayers

Please hold my father-in-law, Gong, in your thoughts and prayers tomorrow.  He is meeting with another doctor, this time at a major cancer hospital in NYC, about his recent prostate cancer diagnosis to consider various treatment options. Mama will meet her parents in the city and go to the appointment. We told the kiddos this evening about his illness and our hopes for the best possible outcome.  They took it in stride but will no doubt have questions, especially considering their sensitivity to illness after Mama's summer and their classmate with cancer.

  1. All is not lost. I have a friend who was diagnosed with incurable prostate cancer 8 years ago. His wife immediately put him on a meatless diet. He says he is beginning to look like chicken but he lives on.

  2. I hope he will be OK and will pray for him.
