Hi Everyone, Thank you for all the support it really is helping me alot. But, it's been almost 3mts and the pain seems to getting worse. And the other problem is my poor Mother she breaks my heart, she is only 63 years old and all she keeps telling us is that her life is over. My sister & I try to be with her as much as possibe and we are always telling her how much we need her but nothing seems to help. Everytime we call her she's crying its sooo sad. Help!! Thanks Michele

He was told in early July nothing but scar tissue we were so happy.THEN early Nov his stomach was really swollen Cat-scan on Nov 14th shows Cancer is back and it was taking over he body. My Dad was gone 4 days later on 11/18/05 We are devasted! But we got to tell him we loved him and we would be OK.

Jackie, I'm so very sorry about your Dad I know exactly how your feeling.I lost my Dad to NSCLC on 11-18-05 and my heart is broken I don't go one day without crying but from what I'm being told it is normal. Your Dad sounds like a wonderful man (a lot like mine) and we have to look at all the good memories. I find it very hard getting through each day without him but what other choice is there.I would do anything just to have him back for 1 day and tell him how much I Love him.. Don't be to hard on yourself for not telling your Dad everything you were only trying to protect him. I'm sure he would understand!

I'm here in Stamford Connectiuct and willing to talk to anyone who needs someone to talk too. Michele Father DX 4-1-05 Started Chemo and Radation 4/21/05 - 6/30/05 July Cat-Scan shows nothing but scar tissue Remission July - Oct (kinda makes me wonder) Early November Dad's not feeling to good. Cat-Scan on 11/14/05 show Cancers back and taking over his body. Going to start Chemo on 11/16/05 but instead put into Hospital and told there was nothing more they could do but make him comfortable. I think at that point he was just down right tired (can't blame him)..He was able to see everyone on Thurday 11/17/05 and make peace with God. He passed away on Friday 11/18/05 With all his love one at his side. The worse day of my Life!! Michael Ciuffo 12-22-38 to 11-18-05 Rest in peace my wonderful Father!!! Love you & Miss You
