Found out this week that my father-in-law was diagnosed with pancreas cancer... we've been told he is in good spirits!! and he acknowledges how fortunate he has been to date!!! I don't ever remember Neil being sick... (he stated that he has only been on antibiotic's once in his life) so just asking for a few prayers... as we will be going through a very difficult time... learning the treatment options and all the rest that goes with this...
Will keep you posted...as we learn moreWhat Makes a Dad
God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it ... Dad
