Worked early and stayed late but still making time for Dad. He's doing great. Antiobiotics worked again, Praise God and going home tomorrow. I almost had to get in bed with him for this pic haha. 💖 Nothing better than goodies and company when you are in the hospital.

Out visiting someone special ❤️

Happy 83rd Birthday Dad! Took him a cupcake so he can make his wish. He's not feeling too hot today, catching up on his sleep he said. Tomorrow is a big day, we go to the VA Hospital to get the test to see what the radiation accomplished that he did and get our next action plan to knock out the rest of the cancer they strategically had to leave. We are hoping it bounced up enough from the stomach they can go in get the rest. Then Saturday night we are doing Birthday dinner to continue celebrating! #83Strong #GodIsSoGood

He plays with 12 Bingo cards at one time! Talented! Excuse me.....14, I miscounted.

He’s such a good sport with all these appointments, we now have 6 today lol. EKG and Echo are next, they are wanting to do heart surgery before cancer treatments where they go in through the leg to put in a stint. (Correction Valve Replacement) They said he would feel a whole lot better so testing to see if he’s a candidate. They are thinking, yes and right away. Aunt Linda Pitts thoughts?
FROM THE FAMILY
