Hello Onestepflash2025

I'm sorry to hear that your Dad has recently been told that his lung cancer has slightly increased in size and that the specialists are now recommending active treatment. It's understandable that you have questions and concerns about how this may impact your Dad. 

The type of treatment your Dad has will depend on the type of lung cancer he has as well as other potential influencing factors. You can read more about chemotherapy for lung cancer on our website. 

If you'd like to talk things through with one of our nurses for some advice and support you can call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any information that they can. 

I hope that things go smoothly for your Dad. Do keep in touch and let us know how you're both doing. 

Best wishes, 
Jenn
