My dad has cancer and well his name is Stuart and I'm his daughter. I wanted a username to represent him rather than myself because he's the one going through this.
Anyway, he has stage 4 cancer and we were told immediately it was terminal. Appointment and things were delayed due to covid, which is how it got to stage 4 before anybody noticed. He has mouth cancer and well it is what it is now. The problem with removing it is that it was connected to the bone marrow and bone and it's close to his eye.
He has also developed a ulcer on his tumour to and I don't know what this means and even contacting his nurse I never got a straight answer. All I know is that the immunotherapy didn't work which I know isn't uncommon, but now he's having chemotherapy every week (Tuesdays to be specific, like today.) The ulcer isn't going, infact it's getting worse and worse everyday and growing. So his body isn't fighting it off even though he is on plenty medication which is supposed to reduce it.
With the Chemotherapy now being weekly, the ulcer not improving and the immunotherapy not working I'm not sure what's happening. I need to add my dad cycles 3 miles to and from the hospital every week to prove he can. But he says it was specifically hard today, it could be the wind but he only really leaves the house once a day now, he cycles everywhere. But is becoming less active by the day, I don't know if it's closing to the end.
