Thanks for your kind words. He is 75, smoked for over 50 years and quit about 6 yrs ago -cold turkey- after his bro passed away. He was going thru treatment but it's not helping much. It was either get radiation for 5 days a week for 5 weeks or stop altogether. Chose the latter. He also had a spot succesfully removed in his brain before he even started the chemo for the lung. It's sad. He's a good guy/dad/grandpa -a tough old ex Marine -knew more jokes than anyone I've ever met. He's not in any pain, so that's good. It's just one day at at time. Sorry don't mean to be debbie downer.
You ar enot being a debbie downer, just telling it how it is. I'm sorry for your family and for your dad in law. *hug*
