Thank you all! He is still out in a week he should be home and I hope that I can convince him to go to the doc.

Sheba, I hope all is well and he went to the clinic!  As you know I recently experience my dad denying his illness and making him go the doctor.  I hope that your dad will go. 
 
Thoughts and prayers with you and as someone posted in "my string".  The Serenity Prayer - We have to accept the things we cannot change, have courage to change the things we can and the wisdom to know the difference.  We cannot control another persons behavior.
 
Gosh, I know how hard that is with these circumstances!  I hope he decides to go and yes, as wildcat suggested, don't forget to tell him you love him!

Hey Sheba,
 
Well I guess a half promise is better then no promise at all. Keep on it, it seems to make a difference! Hang in there and Keep us posted!

I got a half promise that he will go to the clinic as soon as he returns from China. He is going for a week. Obviously for work....
I hope that he really goes... Is worst than a mule!
