Prayers for my son and his grandpa please

-
He had two large masses and part of intestine removed yesterday. He still has another. Doc's are happy with results so far.
 
Son got word today that he was up and walking around made him feel a little better. I told him to go spend time with him. I know it's not good he is stage 4. Things have been pretty rough between us as this is the first time he's had to deal with something this bad other than my own bout of cancer. I have his worries plus my own of running out of unemployment, still haven't got the call from work for my physical, not having a running vehicle after wrecking mine. I used his car for a few errands this morn and he calls me wanting to know whats taking so long. Got hung up at the post office (shipping auction winnings) by an employee that had to chew my ear off cause he saw the dart. This too shall pass. I hope. Thank You all for the prayers.
 
Hang in there Peter, things will get better, more prayers sent for you, your son and grandpa
 
Son just called from hospital relieved, his grandpa looked good and was joking aroud. Guess he still has two masses. The docs wanted to take two and see how he did. After some recovery time they figure they'll go after the other two. He told the docs that he's had a long good life and if it was time to punch the clock he was ok with that. He asked how long do I have days, weeks months? The docs said "years" He's a tough old goat, even if the docs did say weeks I'm not sure he'd tell my son that.
 

Update... My son talked to his Poppa last week and Poppa told him that he told the doc's that he's lived a long full life and if it is time to punch the clock he's ok with it. He told my son that the docs said he had a lot of time left, that he wasn't going anywhere soon. Well that made my son feel better, but I had my doubts if he would tell him if it was bad news. I told my son to go see him, spend as much time with him as you can. That you just never know. Well... I just got the call he's riddled with cancer stage 4. He's still in the hospital but they are going to send him home in a few days, there's nothing they can do for him. They didn't give a time frame. My son is out right now but when he gets home I have to give him the news. It's not gonna be a good night here :( wondering if I should wait till morning, or wait till he gets home from work tomorrow. He already missed two days of work when this all started.
 
When I went though this with my grandpaw when i was 16ish ... My famliy told me as soon as thay knew . I was happy thay did I got to say some things to him before.....
 
Tell him when you think you should. Either way, it's gonna be hard to sleep. I'll keep everyone in my prayers for a smooth as possible transition
 
... prayers sent. I pray that the Lord's wisdom will show the way through these hardships....
 
Sorry to hear the bad news, prayers sent for grandpa and your son, also the family. I hope he takes the news ok and gets to spend time with him. I just lost my aunt over a week ago to cancer, not easy to go through, it is even harder to lose a grandpa :sad5:
 
Just saw this....prayers sent. It's best for your son to know the truth ASAP.
 
Sorry to hear the bad news, more prayers from us to work through this.
 
I'm glad you told him the truth. It will mean more to him as he gets older.
My mom looked at the world through rose-colored glasses and would never tell me of any "bad news" when I was growing up. It's something that I've always resented once I learned the truth.
Prayers on the way for your entire family to remain strong in this time that "Poppa" needs you all the most.
