Re: [VFB] Sometimes being a dad really sucks, a personal note, please read, Jimi
Jimi my thoughts and prayers are with you and your daughter. As you know i have an incurable cancer and can relate that it is sometimes very hard to talk to anyone about it. I was lucky that my wife and duaghter were with me when i was diagnosed but still find it difficult to tell friends for the first time, I dont know why your daughter did not tell you but dont hold it against her just let her know that you are there for her and try to spend as much time as you can together. I sometimes think my wife is being over the top as she does not let me out of her sight that much but then i realise the love we have for each other makes up for everything.

There is a reason. As some of you may know, most don't, since about last June our daughter Amanda has had some medical problems with her female parts. During Christmas brake she alluded to the fact she may have cancer. That caused her mom and me to push for answers to many questions, and meet a stone wall of non answers. The more questions we ask, the less contact and answers we got. Last night we were hit with a bomb shell. Having not heard from Amanda in a couple of days, after many attempts, Theresa called a couple of her room mates at school, got no answers but left messages. One called her back fairly late. It appears that her friends and room mates thought Theresa and I were some kind of Monsters because we were not there for Amanda. It appears that Amanda found out last July that she had Ovarian Cancer, and it has now moved to her liver, and with all appearances, her brain. She lever told us about the first part, let alone the progression, and we don't know why. Needless to say, Theresa and I are at a loss of understanding, and have more questions than answers now as to why she never told us anything. Amanda does not know that we now know what is going on. Her roommate invited Theresa down to stay in her room and talk to Amanda with support from her friends. Spring break starts Friday and we are going to start today to try to get the funds together so she can go. If you would, please pray that we can get answers andwill know what to do and what to say. To say that we are at a loss of understanding would be an understatement. I thought I should let you know because many of you know and love our daughter and should know what is going on.
