Today is June 26 2010.  Tonight my wife and I went out to eat with my daddy and momma.  While we were there my mother told me she had something for me to read.  I thought it would be one of the books she buys me from time to time (which I typically don't like-I hate to admit that too).  What she handed me was very shocking.  Basically what it said is that my daddy may have lung cancer.  He has smoked off and on since he was 5 years old.  His uncle gave him his first smoke.  I felt so many things after reading that but mainly what I felt was denial.  I still do not think he has it and it hasn't been confirmed yet.  He's going to see another doctor on Tuesday and get a CT scan.  I don't want sympathy.  Let me repeat that line.  I don't want sympathy.  If you want to post something just post your screen name and that will say plenty.  I only posted this so I could "say" what I felt.  I am starting to tear up thinking about this so I will leave it at that.
