An update on Dad

Dad's cancer has progressed so that there are some symptoms. Several weeks ago he noticed a full feeling which the Dr confirmed was due to the expansion of the liver due to metastatsis there. Then last week he noticed some problems with balance which turned out to be caused by a nickel sized tumor on the Pons (an area in the center of the brain). So the chemo has been stopped and Whole Brain Radiation (WBR) will start next week. The chemo will be started after the 20 radiation treatments depending upon his condition. Thank you for your continued prayers.
