Sorry to hear that! I really do hope we make advances in cancer detection, that's so fear-inducing that you can't know until it's too late.

Thanks! Luckily my dad is still kicking around, but he was classified stage 4 lung cancer in 2018 (if memory serves) so we understand that's it's going to come back at some point. But he got to see 3 grandbabies since chemo+radiation+surgery so that's precious time he has enjoyed :)
That's a very good reminder that it's not about the years (quantity) but quite definitely how you fill it. So I wish you folks lots of valuable moments and beautiful memories.
Very sorry about your dad. I am so thankful that in my case I still have a shot at cure. People have been telling me I am strong to go through this, but folks like your dad are really the strong ones.
