This past year my dad was receiving treatment for prostate cancer, he had a dose of chemo and his levels were right down. He was tired but we were assured this was down to the effects of the chemo, but he would walk a little and be out of breath. It really frustrated my dad as he was very active, never been sick a day in his life until now.
The day he died he said he was having one of his "washed out days" ....3 hours later he passed away in the back on an ambulance due to a blood clot in his lung. I've heard this is common with patients with cancer but if it is then why wasn't dad checked for it when he said he was short of breath? I don't understand could something have been done before it led to this?
I'm completely heartbroken I just don't know what to do without my dad, we shared the same birthday which is due on Wednesday and I'm dreading it. He was so full of life and had so much he wanted to do like take my mum away and start living their life again and it's all gone. I just don't understand.
Thank you
