Husband has terminal bowel cancer

My husband has terminal bowel cancer. He keeps being hospitalized because of diarrhea. Anyone have any ideas to keep him home

  • Hello Beanie1953

    I'm sorry to hear that your husband is dealing with repeated admissions on top of everything else.

    Does your husband have a specialist nurse? They would be best placed to advise you if there is something that can be done to try and improve things. If he doesn't have an allocated contact nurse then speak to someone in the team responsible for his care or speak to the GP and ask if they can arrange for you to talk to someone who can give you some advice. 

    You're welcome to call our team of nurse for some support and advice. They're available on 0808 800 4040 (Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm). 

    I do hope that things improve for you both soon. 

    Best wishes,
