Worst Day Ever...

Well, today was probably the worst day on the roller coaster ride of the last few years with Pops' battle with cancer. He went to his oncologist appointment for the latest results of his cat scans and blood work. Basically, his Dr told him that his cancer has "exploded" and that there is nothing more that can be done medically for him. It is time for Hospice.

Needless to say this was devastating news for Pops, Nano and the whole family. His cancer has just progressed so quickly and we are not ready to deal with saying good-bye. So, we are just going to spend as much time together as we can and appreciate and love each other while we can. And, hopefully Hospice will keep Pops comfortable and pain free so we can have some quality time together.

Andres, the kids and I are driving up there this weekend to spend a week with Pops and Nano. Andres will fly home during the week to work and then fly back up to drive us back. I will post pics of our trip and I will relish every moment I get to spend with Pops. I know Zach and Mia are looking forward to the trip too... although they seem to be most excited about seeing the cats!

Please pray for Pops and our whole family at this time.
