Candice

welcome to the forum and so sorry to hear your news ... it must be devasting for you

your support to him will be very much needed and required but it’s also important that you get help through this process too as cancer not only impacts on those of us going through treatments, but all those close to us too

your dad has been an emence rock throughout your life and it’s hard to now face up to what is now happening

there are many people on here going through and have been through the same ... and regardless of the time, there is always someone to talk to on here

let us know how you get on and shout whenever you need

the moderators on here can also advise ...so ask and mumble away

Sorry to hear about your dad. My husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer in August as well. Try to stay positive, chat to your dad, talk about good times,seek help yourself. Do you have a Mcmillan nurse, or local hospice support? They are invaluable.

Love and hugs xx

Hello Candice.  I am so sorry that your dad has terminal cancer.  It would have been hard enough to lose your mum at 15, then when your dad found a new woman to love and whom you love also, it seems so unfair that you are now losing your dad.  But life can be horribly unfair.  Stay close to your dad and your new mum, get involved and - as jai says - talk to him and really make these last months count.  I also think it might help you to chat with MacMillan Cancer Support - whatever will help you through this.  Unfortunately as adults we cannot just close our eyes and pretend it isn't happening (I know, I have tried!) so it is best to try to work towards acceptance and making the most of the time that your father has.
