Hello....
My hopeless moment came with the delivery of a sarcoma diagnosis, given by my Wife's surgeon, in a noisy, crowded, tv-blaring waiting room. In a brief few minutes, he delivered the information in somber, clinical tones. I was devastated and scared for my Wife and for me. It's hard to seperate emotion from cold logic in those searing moments. The key to handling these circumstances, is to not allow emotion to take over, and overwhelm you. With time to process, and support from loved ones, you get thru the overwhelming part, and start down the road to gradual acceptance and the "new normal".
I'm sorry the news you're getting right now is difficult and negative. Hopefully, with each passing day, you can see things differently or with a clearer perspective. I know that there are many stories of remarkable recovery after devastatingly difficult circumstances, and your Grandson could be one of them!! GOD BLESS you and your Family...❤️

@ctflyr
Thank you so much for your story and encouragement.

Michael has been referred to palliative care and although it's not end of life care, it's a prelude to it.

This has all happened so fast, we hardly got a chance to catch our breath. Best described, as a psychological punch in the gut.

Despite the poor prognosis, we are hanging on to each and every bit of hope. Made possible, in part, by you and others who walk along with us on this rocky road.
