Dad And His health
2 years ago
As some of you may know earlier of one my journals my dad did a heart surgery a few years ago, and is now waiting for a second one. Since his condition is getting worse i myself is gonna go on a routine check in a few years again since it's hereditary heart disease passed onwards from my father's side of the family. His mother had it and he has it now and i might get it which is why i get free routine check up every few year's to check condition of heart.
And well today before my shift my dad called me, and informed me he has also been diagnosed with cancer in his bladder. At least his doctors was honest with him depending on how treatment goes he either has a few months or 5 years life expectancy. And with his current heart condition i am actually worried he might kick the bucket even before his 70th birthday next year. But he informed me he will try his best to fight it.
So today his phone has been ringing like hell and it's wierd seeing relatives never having bothered to call my dad for years suddenly realising that they should probly talk with him now before it's to late but atleast he is glad for the support from my mom/His ex. And all my uncles, but it's taxing watching my dad health decline due to heart disease and now this cancer also?
But i promised my dad he has my support also, and should he fail the battle well i will deal with the sorrow then and his funeral but for now i wish him the best in his struggle i just hope his body can handle both problems he is facing atm.
