My dad is starving himself. No longer eating or drinking. How long should I expect him to live. He is doing this because he doesn't want to live anymore and I understand that. Any advice would be appreciated.
Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm not sure if you have spoken to his doctor/specialist, but if he has recently stopped eating and drinking then give them a call so they are informed and can advise you. Even if he no longer wants to pursue treatment, they can help to make this time easier for him. They will also be able to help with expectations and any next steps required.
If you have immediate concerns and can't get through to the doctor, call 111 for more urgent advice.
Our nurses are also available on 0808 800 4040 (Monday-Friday, 9-5) if you'd like to talk things through.
