Dad with cancer

My dad has been in the hospice for two weeks now,and the fluid in his legs  is now gone and only needs the one leg bandaged instead of the two and his jaundice has gone,doctors told me 7weeks ago he only had 2 weeks left and my dad is still here fighting and today he is back HOME.....I'm pleased he got home I know the cancer is still in his liver but the docs say it has spread but I tell you something he is a fighter and has a strong heart although he has heart failure his spirit is strong,he keeps positive every day and I think a positive outlook does work,but the main thing is he is still here fighting,I wish one day we will find a cure for cancer x

  • Hi Yoyo2207, 

    I'm glad to hear your dad is proving the doctors wrong and is keeping positive. It's also great the he has managed to come back home as well which I'm sure he's very happy about. Many members here say that a positive outlook really does help when facing cancer and I hope it continues to give you and your dad strength.

    Do come back and let us know how you dad is getting on when you can Yoyo. We'll be thinking of you both and sending all our positive thoughts your way.

    Best wishes to you both,
