We are. He started radiation Thursday down near Philly, and they are staying with their daughter near King-of-Prussia during the radiation treatments. That will be followed by two types of chemo, one pill and one by induction. He gets a port on Feb 4th, and I think he can do most of the chemo back home, and that's when we're trying to schedule a visit.
His biggest issue right now is the blood clots in his legs, he can barely walk. They need to shrink the tumor before they start heparin to dissolve the blood clots. We'll go down to Philly if we have to, but we're waiting to find out where he'll be.

Yeah cancer sucks. In the KOP area you have a lot of expertise in cancer care, Fox Chase is well, well known, you can't go wrong there. I was treated at RWJ New Brunswick for my colon cancer surgery, and Regional Cancer Care for my chemo. Top notch care, both. My mom fell to non-Hodgekins lymphoma some years back and my dad died last week being treated for but not dying of Myeloma. 88 and feeling so independent...just had a medical episode. Will miss him. Neither ever smoked. Sucks
Staying positive, and as dad said, "what's the alternative," is what your BIL must do, that and a hell of a lot of family support, which it seems like he has. It's so important.

Jimbo, very sorry about your father  you have my condolences.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Thanks Jim, and wow, sorry about your dad. Yeah that's pretty much the attitude Anthony has, and he does have a lot of support.
