My father has battled kidney cancer for almost three years. In September 2004 the doctors said he had 4-6 months to live. He has been fighting through all the treatments and still managed to joke and have a good time. Two weeks ago right after my spring break he tried a radical treatment that could have cured him, Interlukin 2, which had a 95 percent survival rate. At this point in time the cancer has gotten the best of him. He was on a respirator controlling his breathing. After a nearly 4 year bought with cancer my father passed way. He fought hard. Im not really sure what to do without my dad, my mom passed away when I was ten, so I will now be without any parents.
You really never know how much time you have left with loved ones, this treatment was supposed to just be a week in the hospital and everything was supposed to go fine. My dad had to be the 5 percent that had complications. As corny as it may sound tell your loved ones how you feel about them. I told my dad I loved him, but never had the chance to have that last conversation.
