Hi

Just wanted to welcome you to cancer chat though sorry for the reason that you find yourself here.  It can be such a stressful and emotional time for family/friends when a loved relative has cancer (my husband had Mesothelioma) and I found good support on this site.

I hope the drain brings some relief for your Dad and feel free to vent your frustrations/fears here as there are many understanding people here and it sometimes helps just to write it all down.  Sending a virtual hug. Jules54
