Hi all
My dear Dad sadly lost his battle with cancer on Saturday. I have been reading all the posted stories and feel for you all as we are all feeling and doing the same things, trying to make sense of it all.
my dad was diagnosed last December, after losing a little weight and being sick, his diagnosis was unknown primary somewhere in the gall bladder or angiocarcinoma , he also had secondary on lungs and liver, he was offered chemo to control it and he did not want to know prognosis either... As we wanted to hang on to hope.
my dad sailed through the chemo which ended in June as he then had a blocked bile duct and was jaundice so they could not finish the last round of Chemo, but my dad was ok, he took steroids etc and he started drinking carrot juice and soursop tea as this was meant to maybe help towards tumour shrinkage.
Sadly his body gave up in the last week and he was admitted to a hospice on Saturday morning for pain relief and passed away around 5.45pm with his family with him.
very very sad time, but I am glad I took my dad to all his chemo sessions as it gave me quality time with him, just spend as much time as you can and stay positive when with your loved ones even if it is terminal.
Love to you all x
