Time to go public....

My parents told Suz and I this past weekend that my Father has a Stage 1 Cancerous Lesion in his lung (confirmed by Biopsy/Pathology results this morning). He will have surgery to remove the affected lobe within 2 weeks. At this time no radiation/chemo are planned.

If you have to have Cancer, this is the kind to have. Small, isolated..no sign of it anywhere else (blood, other organs, other lung). This is the silver lining of a very dark cloud.

Suz is my rock.

I'm much better now than I was Friday night when I called Fran and bolted from work in a disintegrating pile of emotions. Still scared and wondering what the future holds.
