Hi all

My dad informed me in January he was having tests for kidney cancer.

Due to not living local and not having the greatest relationship fast forward to this week I texts/WhatsApp him and no reply, I got a message from 1 of his friend who informed me his in a bad way. I travelled down to see him and the weight loss and memory is heartbreaking (he doesn't remember how to use a phone).

He doesn't really know what is wrong with him no letters explaining just that his to take lenvatinib which I presume means he actually has cancer! Again I think this is down to his memory.

His debated me with the date it's not yet February(so missed a appointment) but has been to his march(15th) appointment..

Anyway my question is can I call his gp tomorrow and request something to help him weight wise as he says he can't  eat and raise my concern about his memory. And can I contact the cancer clinic about his missed appointment and arrange for transport for him for his next treatment(IV treatment is every 6 weeks) I am next of kin and only "family" he has(has other children who ain't around)
