Pa had is final consult with Roswell--an operation to remove the tumor is too iffy--risks/cost much larger than possible benefits.
Pa will now continue chemo and wait and see.
I spoke with Pa this morning--he's is beginning to feel a little better and his appetite is picking up--he can even taste food now. Monday he goes in to replace the temporary stint with a permanent one--it's an outpatient deal. We hope that this could reduce some discomfort since the temp stint is way over do for replacement.
We are all looking forward to the visit from the Florida contingent of the Chilberg clan next weekend--should be a memorable reunion.
Keep Pa in your prayer and imagine his recovery and push the feelings of it forward. Best, joe
