Gang, I'm just going to go ahead and drop a big ole' "hallelujah" right here. My dad had his lung biopsy. It's non-small-cell lung cancer (not awesome, but waaaaaay better than the alternative), and the doctors are reasonably sure (pending a PET scan next week) that it's stage 1 and *VERY* curable.
I'm not ready for my dad to not be around, and I'm definitely not ready for my son to lose his best friend (his Pop-pop). I'm choosing to view this as awesome news.
