My dad has been diagnosed with bowel cancer which has spread to the lungs and liver. His liver is completely covered in cancer & it was his failing liver that led to the cancer diagnosis.
He’s been told without chemo he has a few months at best, and with chemo less than a year. He’s been offered it and he’s not sure what to do as he formed the impression that the oncologist wasn’t recommending it.
He’s asked for my advice but I’ve said it needs to be his decision. Is having chemo when you are effectively having every symptom (apart from jaundice and swelling) of secondary liver cancer worth it?
