You are in my thoughts, Craig. I lost my dad a few years ago to the same cancer.
He was 82 & went thru the whole chemo story as well. That was not successful as he go radiation burn on top of eveything. My dad was quite the gentleman. When he came out of his last operation (to be 'bagged'), his only interest was to introduce us (my, my brother & sister) to the nurses & doctors in the I.C.U. Once he had done that, things went downhill very fast. The operation was a success, but his heart packed up & we had to say goodbye the following day. My mom went 14 months later, after being diagnosed with stomach cancer only a month before.

My mom, bless her was a strong woman. When we were sitting with my dad after the operation, my ma sent us to get take-outs. (KFC). She told us no matter what, we must eat.. So we ate, after saying 'good-bye' to my dad.
 
Went through the same thing with my Dad. You have my sympathy and hopes for the least pain for all of you as possible.
 
Craig, my father passed from colon cancer a week after his only son's wedding. Mine. I was 29. I remember.
Cherish the times past and present.

Thoughts are with you.
 
Many thanks everyone, unfortunately my father lost his battle last night (31st October) and passed peacefully and pain free as the doctors could make him.
