Hi Bubbanat

I scroll these forums each night as it is weirdly comforting to see that others are going through similar experiences, despite not wishing this on anyone.

I was drawn to your post as I have been through a very similar situation and know how you feel. My dad was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer after only a short few weeks of symptoms on February 7, and passed away on March 17 despite a 6-12 month prognosis.

Myself, my sister and mum are in complete shock as we were still coming to terms with his diagnosis. I feel so haunted by what I saw, and will never be able to comprehend or accept it as my dad was so fit and young spirited and then this happened out of the blue. We feel robbed of another 20 years with him as he was only 65. I'm 30 and never expected to lose a parent this young.

Please take care of yourself and sending you so much strength. I'm finding being in a bubble with all the covid stuff strangely helpful. If you ever want to talk I am here.

Take care xx

Hi

Thanks for your reply! Grief is such a lonely emotion and although I'm surrounded by my husband and children, they weren't there (thankfully) so dont really understand what happened and why I feel like this....

I'm so sorry for your loss, that's such a young age, my dad was 68.

Take care, and anytime you feel like a vent I will most certainly listen.

Love and strength to you and yours

Xx

Hi,

My dad was diagnosed mid Feb and died 2 weeks after.

He had lung & liver cancer, totally out the blue as he was healthy and only 69.

I'm struggling to get my head around it as it was so quick.

Tale care if yourself
