Hi all,
my dad was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer 12 months ago. Treatment is not working, so he’s now on palliative care. His cancer is asbestos related. I’m a single mum to just one daughter, we don’t have contact with her dad, so my parents have literally co-parented with me. I don’t know where I’m going with this, but I just can’t cope. I’m watching my dad in agony every single day, as is my daughter. He’s an ‘if dad can’t fix it, no one can’ type’. My world is shattered, I need to work and be a mum, but I’m finding it so difficult. I’ve just watched dad spend hours in the foetal position and throwing up because he’s in so much pain. Mum is trying to get him to eat but he can’t. I feel so lost and helpless. My dad is the backbone of our very small family (my brother died with ewings Sarcoma in 2012). It’s just me and my folks and my daughter. Sorry for the rambling post, I don’t know what I’m asking for. A miracle?! That would be nice x
