A very warm welcome to the forum Lexygirl although I'm sorry to hear your dad's oesophageal cancer has spread, and that you're unable to find out how long he has left.

This must be a very difficult time for you and your family, especially when you're unable to get the answers you're seeking, but hopefully your dad's medical team can give you a rough timescale soon so you can move forward on this journey and prepare for what's to come on.

I hope some of our members will offer their thoughts and advice to you soon, but if you'd like to speak to one of our cancer nurses about this, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very easy to talk to and will do all they can to help you.

We're sending you and your family all our support Lexygirl and our thoughts are with you at this time.

Kind regards,

Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
