brad2531 - that’s wonderful that you are able it seems to not let your sadness be reflected too much. I’m sure you are hurting immensely and maybe a little scared like my husband. Don’t be afraid to show your empathy, but at the same time if you can keep yourself together I’ll be frank, it’s helpful. I’m 67 and dx at stage 2 in 2022, and then stage 4 shortly after surgery and first run of chemo. It moved to my liver and got that radiated, and after 6 months (same time radiation wears out) my cancer is coming back very aggressively and we just got the news yesterday and my husband in very bad shape. But this weekend I did the 5k PancCan walk for cancer (in the rain!), so I’m enjoying life until the end. I like what your son is doing with his daughter and that’s a very selfless thing to do and I pray they have a great trip. I pray that your son tolerates chemo as long as he can and continues to leave a good legacy for his daughter.
