DS> room. He is home now, but hasn't had many "good days" since they
DS> discovered the cancer. 

Cancer can be fought, I know of many cases, but lets deal with who is known
here:

Nora as a toddler was diagnosed with Acute Lymphatic Leukemia she is now about
19 and going strong, treatment was some kind of ride for her.

Ryan my grandson diagnosed at 9mo with Acute Mylogenious Leukemia, if he does
not annoy me too much in September he will be 13, his ride was a doozy as well.

Now for some one older, my grandmother, she died in 1993 at 83 she was
diagnosed with leukemia at 20 fought it and won, breast cancer at 40 same deal
fought it and won, but cancer finally got her, she had major upper bowel cancer
as well as major from her neck to her waist, internally.  But she fought it
every inch of the way.

My Dad, at 73 diagnosed with prostate, fought it and won, next was colo-rectal
fought it and won, next was lung and liver, fought it and won.  So far he is
still alive and as cranky as ever.

Try and be as positive as you can with your dad, and you never know he MIGHT
get a couple more years.  The commonalty with all these people is their
positive attitude, and having good positive people around them.

Hope this helps.  Keep us posted.

We are a fine board trying to make it better.
