Dads terminal

Hello, I’m 17 and last summer my dad was diagnosed with terminal pancreatic and liver cancer. He has had two types of chemo and none of them have worked, the last chemo took a lot out of him and he was really ill. We are now paying for mistletoe therapy in the hope it works, does anyone know if it will help him cause I’m really scared and I can’t lose him, neither me or my mum are coping very well and I’m so scared to lose him. Earlier today he was sick and he hasn’t been sick for ages cause he hasn’t had the chemo and we don’t know why he was sick and is it the cancer or could it be the mistletoe cause he never ate a lot today either. I am so scared and I’m not coping. I have begun to not be able to sleep at nights and then sleep a lot through the day, I get panicky easily and I don’t know if it’s just the shock and worry or something else. I am probably not making any sense but if anyone can reply and help me I would love it.
