My father was diagnosed with mds today

Hello everyone, I am absolutely devastated, I don't even know what to do with myself, I wish I was even half the man my father is because of how strong he is. He was diagnosed with mds today and starts chemo on Monday. He has no symptoms really, they gave him a blood transfusion 2 weeks ago and has been feeling good, he is 55 and very athletic. I've been a wreck all day since I got home and he is in absolutely great spirits, I won't let him see me get emotional but I've been sitting at my house alone for 6 hours just wrecked and thinking what to do next. I've read stories of people living for decades with this condition and countless bad news articles as well, I'm just trying to find one people to talk to that can relate to this, I don't know anybody I can talk to but this forum that I found online
