Hi
My Dad was diagnosed with a rare aggressive form of lymphoma in november last year. He's had 6 months of chemo which, we found out last week, has been effectively useless. He has had infections and a pulmonary embolism (which apparently is related- has anyone else had experience with this?). We're now on another lot of chemo but I get the impression from the medical staff that things are not looking great, but no ones telling us much. It just seems so cruel that he's been through a horrible six months of treatment for nothing and now has months more ahead of him. I'm so worried all the time, I feel like we're just waiting for the next thing to go wrong. I'm in the middle of uni exams (I'm 20) and as you can imagine that's going very poorly. Everything is just falling apart and I don't know what to do. Has anyone got experience with lymphoma? Has this sort of thing happened with the chemo not working forst time to anyone else?
thanks
