Dad still in hospital

Well, my dad is still in hospital. They haven't diagnosed his problem yet. Have taken lots of blood and tests. And do you believe they are mentioning discharging him tomorrow? Good ole insurance companies. If they can't find out what's wrong with you after 3 days, you're out... Today he's going through the chills, wearing his sweat pants and having room temperature as high as the tropics. Terrible feeling. Have heard from his friend that has been visiting him that he does look a bit better colorwise tonight.

Tomorrow I head back to Pittsburgh for a CT scan guided needle biopsy. Have to be there at 10 a.m. for a noon procedure. Am glad that it's not the usual 6 a.m. time.
That hour is yucky. Won't have results for at least 7 days.

Tim's still not feeling good today. Flu like symptoms. Did go to school for 1/2 day which actually surprised me. His choice. Tough like his parents. And I'm taking vitamin c's to be proactive in not getting sick. Just need to make it through tomorrow's biopsy. Eyes are a bit sore but can't think about getting sick now.

Good luck tomorrow.......You and Tina have a tough day ahead of you. Hope it comes out good for both you. As you say "Cancer Sucks" and it sure does. Tina thought they had it all, but no. Nothing you can do but hope for the best. She has Jamie Jr to keep her going as you have Tim. Thank goodness for children. They do keep us going no matter their ages. Love to all of you.....Eileen
