We just found out that my Dad has lung cancer and he does not have a lot of time unless something amazing happens. Mom was also diagnosed just 3 weeks before with Breast Cancer. Her’s was a very small tumor that they removed and she is fine.
Dad is no spring chicken at 82 but he is in very good shape other than this. He logged in the BWCA back in the late 50’s and early 60’s. I spent the first 4 years of my life in Camp 6 about 40 miles from Ely living in a tarpaper shack and eventually in a 8X32 ft trailer house. He has worked hard all of his life and was still working last week.
I will be spending as much time as possible with Dad and Mom, we will be hunting, fishing, and I hope to get them to a Packers Game if Dad is strong enough to go.
Please say a prayer for them, and don’t forget how special family is and how short life is!!
We are hoping to find a Clinical studies that he might be elidgble for, there are some amazing things that they can do now but prayer can also do a lot.
Thanks and hope to see a bunch of you guys on the ice again this year.
