Love Update on my dad...

Well he has been home for a week now...Doing much much better...He has been eating!! Horray!! He went from 250 lbs to 140lbs in one year from the cancer..So we are trying to fatten him up!! Next steps for him are treatment for the small cancer cells that are on his lungs The dr's are very hopefull he will beat this...Since the cancer started on his kidney and not on his lungs hes got a better chance to nip in in the bud now!

My cousin, who is a pathologist @ NYU, got a chance to see the tumor and kidney that were removed...The cancer tumor weighed 6lbs and was the size of a mango...Thank god they removed it!!

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers again! You are all wonderful people!!

I have attached pics of his incision...It is not gross at all...He just had the staples removed on Tuesday...
