EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

My dad just got out of surgery has what they said is stage 4 brain cancer.  Removed 80 percent or so in recovery and man I don't know how to describe it.  Never been blamed for some of the stuFf being blamed for know its tbe meds but wow.  Don't like asking for stuff but need some help please.

I will be saying prayers for your dad and for you. Hang in there, meds can do strange things to people but its only the meds.

You aint joking I have never in my life heard him be so hateful.  Surely it is going to wear off sometime.  Telling us we are holding him agenst his will and we don't love him and we aee holding him ransome and sold all of his estate and cows etc.  No matter what we say it is some smart ass remark.  My temper and his smart ass is not working well. 

Man I feel ya went threw same stuff with my grandmother just be thankful of the time god gave you while the hateful things are coming out  I would have to tell her I love her and walk out of the room or house for a while cause just like u I seem to have a bit of a temper we will put u in our prayer as well

when you were a child he took care of you....now it is time to do the best you can..

just remember...the meds and treatment can be rough...and the stage 4 cancer in the brain is not helping...you will have to be like that duck that gets the rainwater on his back...

god bless you both...

Deff God bless you both! You have my condolences and prayers as well. Keep your head up and stay strong for you family. My dad went through the same thing with my granddad.

My little sister had lung cancer and the meds she was on made her say and do stuff out of character also.  Just keep you head up bro and stay in good faith.  God looking over you and your family.

PBC,  so sorry to hear what u and your family are going through. As so many have said before, those meds definitely make people hallucinate, think wrong headed thoughts,, you name it, you'll see prayer warrior saints come out of surgery cussing and spittin like pissed off sailors. Also, anytime you have major brain surgery, esp with a tumor involved, you can see changes in personality.  Last, many people will experience " ICU psychosis", kind of a combination of anesthetic and pain drugs, combined with being in a strange environment, really puts some folks on the psychotic train. Hopefully, when you get your dad home, being in familiar settings will help his thinking clear up somewhat. As difficult as it will be, keep your temper, as best u can, take a break and get fresh air as needed, and realize that ain't your Daddy talking to ya like that, it 's a combination of any of the things mentioned. I'll pray that God give you strength to be the calming factor in this situation, that your family members will draw strength and patience from how you react and handle things. And I'll also pray that God clear your Dad's thoughts and words and that the Dad you know and love will be back quickly. Sorry to be so long winded, buddy, but i went through a similiar experience with my Dad. Hang tight.you got alotta prayer lifting you and your family

  PBC,
        Lots of us have been in your shoes with loved ones. Its hard to see them so much out of character. Continue to love and support them, and the rest of your family. Know that you and your family are in our prayers.

My mother died of Cancer and she done the same thing.  Just remember they are not in their right mind .  I feel for you and pray for you.  Its Tuff.

Big time prayers for you buddy. My mom was a real treat to be around while she was at her sickest. I was young and thought life would never get better. Now that im a grown man it seems so long ago but the cancer med fueled fits she had I still recall. All is well with her now and I pray for the healing of your dad.

x1000...you are absolutely right...

Unfortunately, too many of us.

Hey man. I'll be praying for ya Landon!!!!

When my dad was in that bad accident in November he was
A complete A$$   Told me I couldn't keep him there and told me I was hurting him.
Ask me to undo his arms that was tied and I say I can't
He would call me every name in the book.

But after they slowed his meds down he got better
But not till he was home did he fully stop flipping...


If u need anythin u got my number

Praying for y'all bud.

Prayin for you and your family man, Hollar if you need somethin.

Man, my dad said my grandad was rolling around after they had to cut his other leg off, trying to give nurses 50 bucks to take him outta there... Calling em all names he never said, and just going buck wild. They say there is a circle... you go from baby to man and then back to baby. I know another one of my good friend's mom has stage 3 lung cancer (i think thats what stage) and she was in ICU and declining. So he insisted that he be able to take her home to care for her the "right" way, and let her be comfortable if it really were her last days/hours... they gave her 24-48 hours... and that was almost three weeks ago today. So keep your head up man! We are all praying for you!

Me and the family are praying for you. Just remember prayer is powerful.

Hang in there man

PBC funny story, when my papa had to get his knees replaced the hospital put him in a rehad home, kinda like a nursing home setting and he hated it. i talked to the nurse about what makes him happy and i recommended bringing a peking duck, one of his prize males to see him, she said sure why not so the next day the duck, on a leash comes marchin down the hallway of he place and walk into his room and i tell you what, you couldnt slap him with a 2x4 to change his expression on his face. better than winnin the lottery that day. maybe do some stuff that he likes, bring pictures of his horses and cows for him, maybe his favorite hat.
