So, today is daddy's 63rd birthday.
It hurts to realise it, but this may very well be the last birthday we will celebrate for him.
Unfortunatly he has not gotten better from his cancer, actually only worse.
We still have hope that once he starts with his chemp-therapy it will get a little better, but he hasnt started the treatment yet due to an infection in his body that has to be defeated with antibiotics.
Apparantly you cant use both antibiotics and chemo-therapy at the same time for soem reason.
Its hard to see dad just... "disappear". He's not eating very well and he's losing alot of weight (and he didnt even have much weight to talk about before this sickness came).
Dad is currently in a wheelchair, since the wounds on his feet have become so painful that he cant use his feet (this is one of the infections that the antibiotics are for, luckily they're starting to get better)
The last week he's been sleeping alot, due to all the medicines he's getting. Its hard on mom, on all of us, but its the hardest for her since she is the one taking care of him 24/7.
And can you imagine, that eventhough dad has 9 (NINE!) siblings, none of them have called today or sent a card to wish him a happy birthday. Its making me SO SO angry and sad and dad is also very sad about it, ofcourse.
I cant believe how you can do that.
Happy Birthday Daddy, I love you

that is so sad.....I sincerely hope your father will get better...I can't imagine what you're going through 
...don't give up, try to be optimistic as much as you can and your father will feel better because of that

Instead of replying to all of your comments, I just want to say thank you.
Your words mean so much.

Grattis på din pappas födelsedag! Du får hälsa från oss här på forumet istället ... syskon verkar kunna vara en sådan besvikelse. Jag har sett det hos andra också. Tur man är ensambarn.
Jag hoppas verkligen att han blir bättre.
