Nestie Prayers/Thoughts/Good Vibes needed please

My dad has been having tests done over the last 2 months. They are leaning toward him having leukemia. They say he has a blood disorder called polycythemia vera which leads to leukemia.

Our family has been through so much. First my 11 year old cousin with brain cancer. My mom passed away with lung cancer in June of 2006. My grandmother passed away in 2006 also, breast cancer. Then my grandfather with gallbladder cancer in 2007. Now my brother is having problems with his heart again (I posted a couple of weeks ago about his heart attack at the age of 30.)

My dad is going in for a bone marrow biopsy on March 25th. He is scared to death and so are we.

Please do what ever you do (prayers, good vibes, thoughts)!

TIA!

Thinking of you...

I'm so sorry, I'll be thinking of you and your Dad. If I recall from my working days, this type of blood disorder/cancer is chronic and manageable. Meaning people live with it for many, many years in decent health.

HUGS. I'm so sorry you've had to endure all of this within your family. We will pray for your dad that everything works out okay. HUGS again.
