Hi all,

My lovely dad has recently been told he doesn’t have long left due to his cancer and there’s nothing that can be done. I’m so shocked, I didn’t think this would be the outcome. I’m heartbroken.

the anticipatory grief has kicked in, but I go from feeling guilty about not “making the most” of his time here to also being realistic and not wanting to mask my real feelings. 

For now, he’s being treated at home and I hope this continues but I’m so scared. I don’t want to say goodbye. It’s horrible and the toughest thing I’ve ever been through. 

he has been given around 3 months but I know it’s notoriously hard to predict this. I just wish I knew.
