We got this text from our Dad: The VA called this morning turns out I do have lung cancer, they have me scheduled for a barrage of test to see how severe it is & then they can formulate a plan of attack. They’re trying to get me to my 78th birthday. lol What ever happens the greatest title bestowed on me was “dad”. It’s been my honor to be called that by you 3. As I know more I’ll let you know.

    Sorry for the bad news. Had a family member diagnosed with stomach cancer recently. It puts a shadow over things.
