Hi,

Just wondering if anyone can help. We found out my dad has stomach cancer about a month ago and he's been given 6-9 months to live. 

He's decided today that he's going to take palliative chemotherapy. 

We have obviously all been turned upside down by the news and until recently, I've been feeling like I was holding it all together quite well. I'm now feeling lost and struggling emotionally.

My emotions are running all over the place, I am snappy, irritable and generally down. I'm crying very easily quite often. I'm trying my best to stay upbeat for my family but I don't know how to do it. The idea of him going through chemotherapy is scaring the life out of me and I'm struggling to take everything in. I'm usually quite strong but I'm not at all at the moment. 

If anyone can give me any advice,whatever that nay be, I'd be really appreciative. 

Thank you,

Jen
