My dad and cancer

My dad was  diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer, he was doing so well and now the cancer has continued to grow. I feel so broken deep down my heart cant take the pain im going through right now. My dad is only 52, my youngest sibling is 13 years old. Im so upset

  • So sorry for you my dad died of lung cancer in March this year still hurts so much I hope as time goes on you will remember the good times you had I do but sometimes the hurt is too much my dad walking through the gate his favourite walks where I drive every day it's hard but remember what your dad would say and this helps me he would say get along with stuff and don't feel sad it was my time this helps me cause I know he would hate me to be sad hope this helps you I know it is very hard keep strong x

  • So sorry to hear about your Dads cancer diagnosis. 

    He's so young to be going through all this but I guess cancer doesn't pick an age. I know how you're feeling right now, all I can say is you have to allow yourself time..don't hold anything in and don't be afraid to ask for support. I do hope you've got family and friends around you who are trying to support you. Spend as much time as you possibly can with your Dad, take some photos, create some memories if possible. 

    I don't know how old you are but I'm guessing you're probably younger than me. I'm 27, a week before my 26th so 18 months ago to be precise my dad was diagnosed with stage 4 incurable bowel cancer which has spread to his lungs and liver. We try to hold onto all hope and take each day as it comes.
