Default Grandpa update

We found out today that he is in stage 4 of the cancer. He only weighs 137 pounds, down 10 pounds in almost 2 weeks.

Got some meds for the thrush in his mouth and some meds to increase his appetite.

Not good news, didn't expect any either. Still sucks.


Want to thank those that prayed for him. It really means alot to us.

Still standing with you and yours Melody. We all want to see our loved ones go like Frank did quietly passing in their sleep. I wish that not one of us ever had to hear the word cancer let alone have it come out of the mouth of the doctor that is caring for us or the ones we love. I know from experience how devasted you are with this news. I'm truly sad for you and yours. At the same time I'm proud of you girl. You're strong and tough and a hero to me. Life has been so much better for your Grandpa and your Grandma with you there to help them. Thank you for making this world a better place with your medic's heart.

Prayers out for you and yours,

Arrow

My prayers go out to You, and the family. I know it is hard. I lost My Vet buddy, classmate, and a true friend to cancer at the age of 56. Just hard to let go sometimes.
Will put You on My prayer list.
