The attached picture is one of my favorites. I can remember the day my Dad told me he could no longer carry me to my bedtime because I had finally grown too big.... it was yesterday!! Haha!
I think I was probably around 5 or 6, I remember how hard it was for me to accept. I was heartsick. I chose this picture because as my Dad carried me when I was little, I have had the opportunity to return the favor, in a sense. Amazing how so many things in this life will come full circle.
I am trying to put into words how proud I am of my Dad. I am over the moon with pride and gratitude! He has been incredibly brave and so very strong throughout his treatments. As a Daddy’s Girl, he has always been my hero, my pillar of strength. And at 81 years old his hero status continues to grow.
Our next leg of the journey will be 3 weeks of Pinpoint Radiation for most of November. Our fingers are crossed and prayers are sent that it will be even easier than the chemo. And if that’s the case, he’s really gonna ace it! We have heard some mixed experiences as much depends on the location of the radiation and severity of the regimen. Everybody responds differently.
As soon as Dad starts feeling good again, we will begin our Arizona Adventure:) It will be great to be home.
