This is life threatening, and you need to spend time. Colon Cancer, is one of those things that does not seem to end well, there is hope, do not get me wrong. Go see you Dad, you will regret it if you do not. I wish you luck. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Tayla Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Since Hippa Exists its hard to know what the real diagnosis is or the reason for the hospital stay. Go visit him, whether he is sick or not, maintain contact. Don't be that fair weather relative that is only around during the good times, be there all the time. Link to post Share on other sites
mrs rubble Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Does your dad know his wife has posted this on Facebook, considering he's such a private person?? He might be mortified to learn his wife is posting stuff like that on there. I'd ask her what the surgery is for, and if she refuses to answer ask if dad knows about the Facebook post...that may prompt her to spill. As the previous poster's have said, go and see him. Keep in contact, whether he's well or not. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
ChicagoSparty Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Nick, by all means, go see your dad. I just lost my mom to cancer yesterday. I had made arrangements to go down and see her this week, but I didn't get down there in time. We don't know how the clock of somebody's life ticks or when it might just suddenly stop. Go see him.
