My father has bowel cancer with liver and lung metastasis.
He was gave a poor prognosis( 3-6 months to live 7 weeks ago ) and is receiving no treatment . Can someone help me to manage expectations. I know his time is limited and I have seen a massive decline in the last week , something new daily . He rests, sleeps a lot. His mobility has deteriorated so much so that he uses a wheelchair and after numerous near misses he now has a walking frame around the house.
He is in no pain and takes morphine slow release medication to keep any pain at bay .
Is anyone able to throw light on or had any experience of someone loved dying of this awful disease . When do I expect the worse ? Is he bearing the end , I have no idea what to expect and all I hear is everyone is different . I just want to be prepared for the worse
