Please PRAY or my family. We lost our Daddy on Jan 19 of this year. My parentswere married for 50 and a half years & Sept 3 2010 my father was diagnosed with stage 3 lung & throat cancer. It was devestating.My father had became my very best friend. Both of my parents are. I miss & love him more with each passing day. I have never known pain this strong in my life. My father took all his radiation & chemo treatments faithfully. Never realy rescheduled a doctor's appointment until right before CHRISTMAS 2011. He made another appointment for December 27th. Ihave a feeling that he knew the results from his PET Scan wasn't good, that's why he rescheduled it. Anyway, the results were read & my fears were confirmed. There weren't any more treatments left for Daddy. No options to prolong his life. It was up to GOD, as everyday that we live is. The Oncologist asked if Dad wanted to know how long he medically had to live & Dad said yes. The doctor proceeded to tell him he had weeks to months. Ten days later Daddy's right foot started to look as if a mere sore was starting to worsen. And we were right, infection had set up & his immune system was so weak from the cancer that it was already in his blood stream by tht time. He spent 5 days in the hospital as he thought that the antibiotics would heal his foot. That's when they called us in for a Palative Care meeting. They released Daddy from the hospital on Jan 11th & Hospice and mom and us children took care of Daddy's every need while he lay in that hospital bed almost lifeless. We knew that he was holding on for something or someone. He alway protected my Momma. And Momma wrapped her arms around Daddy & brought him close to her lips & whispered "It's okay baby. You can go home to be with The Lord if you are tired. I don't want you to go but if your body & your mind is exhausted then I want you to know when my job is through here on Earth, I will be in Heaven with you. Just find me when I get there. I love you." Daddy took 3 raspy breaths & fell into my Mom's arms. You don't see a love like this too often. I had only seen th happen in movies. My Momma got a sense of Peace from this & I just wanted to tell her story so that you would see that our HEAVENLY FATHER is Amazing. He could have taken Daddy when Momma was asleep but he gave her peace in knowin that Daddy didn't want to leave her bu he was needed at home in HEAVEN. GOD took Daddy home. GOD came in Momma's living room & saved Daddy's soul. I believe that with every fiber of my being. Please PRAY for strength for each day for me & my family. I cry daily. But I know that GOD needed another strong Anl in HEAVEN & that is you Daddy. I love & miss you Dearly Dad
