Update on My FIL

He has 5 treatments left, the rest of this week and then two days of next week. They immediately began to help with the headaches, balance issues, and dizziness.

 

 He started losing his hair after the second week of treatments, so I took him to his daughter's house to have it shaved off. He's bought a few hats for sun protection.

 

His health is not good. He cannot walk around at the hospital, and we have to push him in a wheelchair. He tires easily. I know that he fears death approaching, not what comes after, but leaving. He worries about his wife, and what will happen to her in the future. She is in poor health as well, and does not drive. He knows that we will make sure she is cared for...but you know how it would be, nobody can care for her the way that he does.

 

Only God knows what is to come, and we try to rest in that knowledge and trust in Him. Sometimes it's hard not to let worry overwhelm you...

I'm sorry your father in law has to think about these things right now. I can not even imagine the pain it brings him right now. :(

I'm glad to see an update from you Keyla. Try to post again about how things are with you, your boys and dh too please!
