T's and P's (if you're inclined) for my dad

I've talked on here before about my dad's brain tumor...
Dad just called me a few minutes ago and told me that his brain tumor has returned.
He's had probably half a dozen GammaKnife laser surgeries, and the doctors say that it's not an option this time around. This will be the third brain surgery he has had since the mid 90's. This time it's with a new doctor (the other guy retired) and the new doctor says that the previous surgeries make this one fairly complicated. The surgery will probably be in the next few days.
Dad never lets on that anything bothers him. Helll, he usually doesn't tell us about the gamma knife operations until a week or so after he had them. I could tell that he was worried, from his voice on the phone.
Anyways, yall have a good weekend and send up some T's and P's if you're the T'ing and P'ing type of person.

I don't have much capacity to think.

I lean toward praying. At times it's much better than thinking and this is one of those times. I strongly recommend it for you and your family. I shall pray for you all.

Sorry to hear man, but he sounds like a tough dude who

has been there and done that.
I don't want to turn this too sad, and this is for everyone not just you Ryanadidas, but make it a habit to take pictures of parents,G-parents and other loved ones just doing things they loved to do or they did everyday.
You'll appreciate the candid pic of your dad bank fishing or reading the paper on the porch way more than you will the staged holiday shot in front of the tree.
Some of my favorite pics of both of my grandfathers are in overalls, sitting on a tractor or waist deep under the hood of some car.

Great call on the pictures!

Best pics of my grandaddy are him farming, playing solitaire in his recliner, or playing with my brother and I when we were little. The Olin Mills pictures don't do much for me.
