We found out this past Thursday night that my father has a brain tumor.
They removed approximately 75% of the mass yesterday from the right side of his brain. The doctor said they need to wate 5 days for the pathology report. However, it looks like it is a fast growing primary tumor that will come back. The doctor then said that based on experience with this type of tunor, my father has 6 - 18 months to live. My family and I are completely devastated. We are trying to be positive, but it is very difficult.
My father is 67 years old. He is very strong physically and very strong willed. I know his stubborness will help him through this. However, my mom and my sister are having the most difficulty with this.
Thank you.
George
