Gbm 4. Rt & chemo. Not allowed surgery.

Hi everyone. I'm hoping someone can help me as I'm struggling really bad. My dad was diagnosed with GBM 4 and We are destrought. He's not allowed surgery as it's deep inside the frontal lobe. He's on his first course if radio and chemo. Every day he is worse and his speach is awful. Only now down to a few words he's able to say at all. Before the treatment started he was speaking at 90% normal! Please if anyone can share advice and similar stories please I will be very grateful. Thanks. X
