My dad is just 67 and has secondary cancer.  Started off as bowel and is now in his lungs. 
 

he started his first lot of chemo March 2020,  which contained it for a while but earlier this year it was confirmed the tumours were growing.  he's had a couple of different chemotherapy treatments this year but the consultant has said it's not working.  
 

he was admitted into hospital 3 weeks ago with sepsis, is now come home on oxygen as his sats were low without it but he isn't really managing to get around.  We installed a stair lift Monday to try and make life a little easier but last night his legs just decided to give up and he's now in bed unable to get around.  We had the hospice team come to assess this morning.  Mentally he's still got a lot of fight left in him but physically he's struggling. Mainly the breathlessness but now the legs have given up.  He's muscles have just wasted away.  
 

has anyone experienced this?   In my dads head he just want to get his legs working again and carry on.  I can't help but think this is a progression of the cancer? 
 

im not even sure why I'm posting really, I know  I am struggling massively though,  and I know I'm not alone.  Accepting he's not going to get any better is really hard.  How do you accept that someone you love and look up to so much  is dying? 
 

im hoping I'm going to wake up from a really bad dream.  I just want my dad to be better so we can create lots more memories
