So it's confirmed.. I know I haven't talked about this but a little while back Dad had a spot found on his lungs. Sure enough, like we all figured, it's lung cancer

I'll keep ya'll both in my prayers, seriously, you don't need anything else. Perhaps since he caught it early enough, it won't be such a pain to remove. I'm stil sorry hon... that's awful. :(
*hugs* Thanks Sparky. It's like, right on the outside of the lowest lobe. So he might lose he guesses about 10% of his lung capacity, but that shouldn't be too hard on him he thinks. Also, just the short nearly 2 weeks he's been working on quitting smoking he can feel his lungs being a lot looser, not so tight and full of smoking crap. ;D
We're all a bit worried about the surgery, he meets with the surgeon tomorrow.. so until then we don't know when it will be, but it is ab awfully tiny tumor. 7mm is pretty small and like I said, they usually don't detect anything smaller than 1cm. So he got lucky.;)
