I'm so sorry to hear of your dads illness.
 

I'm in the same boat. My wonderful dad who has always been my biggest supporter has just been diagnosed with terminal cancer. 3-6 months to live. He had his diagnosis in hospital, he's been there since 18th October, we've not seen him since   he went in there fit and well, still working, because he was breathless for a few days. It's completely unexpected and it's floored me. 
he's caught covid too and quite unwell on oxygen. I'm devastated.

just wanted to say, you aren't on your own. 
 

I have an 18 month old too who he adores  

In the same boat too with Mum who has terminal lung cancer. I cant say anything to make you feel better but I can certainly send you all my love, stay strong, here if you need me xxx

Hi

I just wanted to post to say I'm so sorry about your Dad.

My Dad was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer at the start of September and we found out yesterday that it has now spread to his brain.  I truly do know what you are going through with this.  It''s a situation that you never imagine you would find yourself. 

If you are really struggling, maybe reach out to your GP and ask if there is any kind of support that is available? Maybe counselling or even meds that may help you work your way through this. 

When I found out about my Dad I felt like I litereally broke inside and was unable to function properly as a wife, mother or employee, it was like I was walking through fog and I felt so lost, My GP has put me on Citalopram which has helped massively and my managers have referred me for counselling through my workplace but stupid COVID has put the brakes on that for now.

I really hope you find something that will help you through this journey. 

Sending love and best wishes to you and your family x

Hi there,

I am very sorry to read about your dad.

It was a long time ago, and an unbelievably devastating time when my dad died from kidney cancer in 2008.

I still think about him a lot and what I did or didn't do at the time. Just think about your dad and what he needs right now.

I wish I had the internet back then and get support online. I felt so lost back then. I really feel for you. I hope you find inner calm and be the best you can be for your dad.

My husband has just been diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer. I'm trying to come to terms with what lies ahead in the future. 

But my advice to myself and to you is to take each day at a time. 

Sending you big hugs from a far.

J

I'm so sorry you are going through this. My dad just had a bit of pain after eating but was in great health for his age, I am shocked and the news of weeks to live has just devasted me. 

I am so so sorry for what your going through. I never thought I would be in such a situation or didn't realise how devastating this would be. I feel co lately broke and the fog description sounds right. 

I'm talking to a counsellor over the phone so that helps a bit. I went to see him yesterday and that was hard because he was showing me how to do things around the house and giving me books on diy. 

I'm heartbroken like never before. But at least I get to say goodbye.
