Guest JasonChang Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 My father passed away this morning at the hospital. This news comes as a shock as he was only originally in the hospital to repair a fracture in his femur. He did in fact have recurrent sclc with mets, but was stable for one month with third line treatment of taxol and carbo platin. During his whole battle he never had a problem with his right lung, until two days ago. His pleural cavity on his right side also begin filling with liquid. It was getting harder and harder for him to breathe, and that's when the doctors found some more nodules in that lung on an xray. During his whol hospital stay, he also had an increased blood sugar level. I'm not sure if this had anything to do with it, but that was a concern of mine. I know he's in heaven watching down on us, and I am just so happy that he doesn't have to suffer here on earth anymore. Sorry I havent been keeping the board updated on his progress but things have just happened soooooo fast. THank You, Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carleen Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Jason, My deepest sympathies on the passing of your father. your statement: "I am just so happy that he doesn't have to suffer here on earth anymore. " shows just how much you loved him. What a selfless love, that you wish your father peace regardless of the pain it bears you. You are right, he is in a better place now, but I am sure that from his view in heaven he can still share and feel the love between his family and himself. I will pray for you and your family that the pain of your loss be soon replaced with warm fond memories of a life lived filled with love. God Bless, Carleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
