Dad help

Hi my dad has prostate cancer and a few months left if I'm lucky. I'm looking after him by myself at home as he doesnt want outside help. He has stopped going to the toilet and doesnt eat. He barely drinks and is sick throughout the day. Is it normal that he is becoming confused? He stares at me and barely talks to me now. Any help would be appreciated thanks

  • Hello Kent..

    I'm sorry to hear that your Dad has this diagnosis. There could be a number of reasons that he is confused but if he's not going to the toilet and is vomiting then it's important that he's seen by a health professional. It could be something as simple as him having a urinary tract infection but please do contact his GP surgery for some advice. 

    Best wishes,
