Hello,
My Dad was diagnosed with stage 3 pancreatic cancer last October following a heart attack in July. It has recently spread to his liver and after being diagnosed with ascites.
2 weeks ago he went down hill and we actually got called to the hospital as they didn’t think he was going to make it through the day. Luckily, he did and we’ve since managed to get him home.
He sort of perked up a bit at home and has been sitting up, standing up, walking around the room with support from us.. you can’t really have a conversation with him as he’s airy fairy but he’s still aware of us and his surrounding barring some hallucinations now and again.
I understand a lot of people will slip into unconsciousness before the very end and I’m just wondering if anyone had any signs that that was coming? Every day is a blessing but I don’t want to get ahead of myself thinking it won’t happen as I know it will at some point. He is still sipping liquid (sometimes not keeping it down) and has the occasional ice pop.
Sorry to anyone else who is/ has been going through this :(
