Well dad went to the hospital and they made the decision for him and took him off the tablets, saved him from agonising over it though. Although it sounds cruel I am relieved, even in the 2 weeks he has been off the drugs he has changed and is more the man that he was before. I know it is selfish as he is worried that now nothing is fighting the disease and that must be very frightening. I can only hope now that he can start to enjoy the things that he has lost and make the most of every moment as none of us know what is around the corner. I feel more positive at the moment - I am not sure whether that is wrong or not - who knows? I just wish him many happy days to come and will try and make special moments for him. For the first time in ages we are all looking forward to Christmas with our wonderful family. Lets hope it goes well, at least he should be able to enjoy his dinner bless him. Only one negative is the something on his spine which CT scan identifed, MRI to follow - hoping it is nothing sinister. Keep fighting dad your little (big) girl needs you to be around for a while yet. Love you dad always will xx

Hi Hollowrob

I really hope your Dad can stay well and enjoy his life and that you can all make the most of every second of every day. Its not selfish to be relieved that your Dad is not on the drugs, you just want him to enjoy his life without all the side effects they can cause.

I hope Dads results from the MRI are good.

I wish you and Dad and all your family well and that you can look forward to a special family christmas.

Love scarlet x

Hi,

I really dont think there are any rights and wrongs with all this you just do what ever you gotta do to get through the moment and you certainly are not selfish. I am glad you are feeling positive and looking forward to christmas. These times are the most important, the good times.

I wish you and your dad all the best with the upcoming MRI, will be thinking of you.

First of all your Dad is fourtunate to have a daughter like you.

As the previous blog said "there are no rights or wrongs in a situation like this and your certainly not selfish"

I am on a drug which effects my personality not severly but enough to be noticible at times.

Most important thing is to continue being your dads daughter in every way. My daughter is my support.

Have a happy a Christmas and I hope the outcome of any further investigations are the ones that you want

Tony.
