Hello Clarebear2402

I'm so sorry to hear that your Mum passed away just before Christmas and that since you now have some additional concerns about your Dad's health. It's obviously a very difficult time for you both and understandable that your Dad may be struggling with both the loss of his wife and the loss of his role as a carer. 

While it's possible that the symptoms you've described could be part of the grief process and/or attributable to his myelofibrosis, it would probably be a good idea for your Dad to have a check-up with his GP if possible. They will be best placed to arrange any appropriate tests or referrals and hopefully give you both some reassurance. 

I do hope that over the coming weeks and months things settle and improve. 

Best wishes,
