Lung and pelvis cancer

My dad has recently been diagnosed with some cancer on the lung and near the pelvis. It's treatable but not curable which is not what i wanted to hear at all. Is there any hope of finding a cure soon as i don't want to loose my dad at all. I love him so much

  • Hello Lauraemily007

    I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad's recent diagnosis. It can be incredibly difficult news to hear when a loved one is given an incurable cancer diagnosis but try to hold on to the positive news that treatment options are available for your Dad. 

    I know that we have/had many members here on the forum who live happy and fulfilling lives with incurable but treatable cancer and hopefully once your Dad's treatment starts you'll both feel a little less anxious about the situation. 

    We know that for many people talking to someone about how they're feeling can help. If you'd like to talk with one of our nurses for some advice and support you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    Keep in touch Laura and let us know how you both get on. 

    Best wishes
