My Grandfather's battle has begun.

My Grandfather "Papa" was found to have three types of cancer in January after test came back from his knee sugery in early December. I was not allowed to take about it for the longest time because my cousins did not know yet. I am the oldest by 9 years so some of my cousins are just a few years older than Brooklyn.

So they have been running all kinds of test and at first i think my grandma "ninny" was really out of it. Cus her story about what kinda of cancer and where and how much and everything was differennt everyday. It made me worry how bad it really was and how she was really handling it. It was all very stressful and still it.

They have been doing biops everyweek for a month. Ninny says the Doc is trying to find the source before he starts treatment. So finally they think they have the source. around the time lelannd was born he had melinomia skin cancer removed from the side of his face. That doctor never did any treatment or checked again. So that is the source.

He was scheduled to start radiation last thursday and then kemo on friday. Brandon calle me on my afternoon break and said he would do dinner. ( which means pizza hut) I didnt think anything of it. Then when i got home i called him to see how far away he was cus they weren't home. He was acting funny on the phone and made to promise to eat dinner and relax he had something to tell me. I had no idea what he was going to tell me. After dinner he took me in the bedroom put my arms around his neck and told me what happened today while i was at work. Papa had gone to the cancer doctor for a biop before going to radiation. Ninny said he came out of the office as white as a sheet of paper. The nurse had told him is oxygen was low. So Ninny put him in the car and drove over to his heart doctor. She told him to stay in the car while she asked the nurse what to do. The Nurse said take him to the ER asap.

So at the ER they but him on oxygen and did blood work x-rays a cat scan and some other test. They found one blood clot in each lung. The nurse said if she had not took him in right then he would be dead! ( how thankful i am that he is not dead i would probably have had blake that same day i could bear to loss papa while pregnant) Papa told the nurse he has been having trouble breathing for weeks but never told anyone. OMG papa are you crazy ..i told him thank god your still here. i know god still has him here for a reason!

He was in the hospital for 5 days. He was released Tuesday on Oxygen and blood thinnners for life! but at least he is still here. But he still has cancer to battle. First treatment of radiation was yesterday and kemo today. Radiation everyday and kemo once a week for 7 weeks. i sure hope his body can hanlde all of this.

He needs prayer for strenght to make it thru this. strgnth for day to day. And He needs prayer to find the Lord i am sure that is why he still here. I need prayer that he makes it to meet Blake.
