This is my Papa, he is 89. Recently he was walking with his walker and his arm popped they took him in and sure enough he broke it. After taking a closer look they said he had cancer. We'll first things first they put a rod in his arm so it would heal and did a biopsy while they were In there and found it is Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma. They found it in his colon, arm, abdomen, but it is probably all over. They gave us a few treatment option but they would all be hard on him and most likely wouldn't make his life longer so we opted not to treat it. He had to be in a wheelchair for a while after surgery, but he is getting stronger and we think he will be back to using his walker soon. Which is great news! They are giving him months don't know how many. It's not good but it could always be worse.
Love you, Papa
