For My Father

In June, the doctors told my father that he was in remission and took him off of his chemo drugs. He was relieved because the side-effects made him feel not so hot.

The Myeloma came back and attacked the bone in his leg and he cannot walk, at least not without crutches. The doctor told him if he puts pressure on his leg, the bone will shatter.

Today he will speak with an orthopedic surgeon about hip-replacement surgery, and afterwards he will probably receive chemo therapy again.
