    Thank you both for the positive replies. My dad has always been very active and the prospect of him not being able to live the active lifestyle that he is accustomed to and watching him deteriorate & suffer has slapped me in the face. All of you new friends who have replied to me and of course my faith in God have renewed my hope that he will live many many more years. God bless you all!

    Thank you for the positive replies. I pray constantly about this. It just seems like everything I read on the web is all gloom and doom. It really helps to hear from people who are living normally with this disease. God bless all of you!

    Thank you so much for the encouragement. Right now it’s very tough. I didn’t mention in my first post that my dad has congestive heart failure and also has a pacemaker. That is the original reason that he went into the hospital, then when the blood tests were done, this was discovered. This hit us like a ton of bricks. He is home now but he still doesn’t feel good. He is so weak. He is on a heart medicine, fluid pills, ect. So that worries me, having this disease on top of the heart problem. I feel so lost, I can barely function. I feel like my life will never be the same.I need all the encouraging words I can get. Thanks!

    My heartfelt thanks to all of you who have replied. I feel a little more hopeful now, but I still feel like someone has stuck a knife in my heart. It really helps a lot to know that I am not alone in this. I look forward to communicating with all of you! I will keep you posted as things progress. God Bless!
