grandad

Hi everyone is there anyone who could give me a bit of advice as my grandad is dying of anaplastic large cell lymphoma. I’m not sure how to prepare myself for when he goes or what to expect. If anyone can give me advice it would be appreciated 

  • Welcome to the forum Adunnett although I'm sorry to read about your grandad.

    Hopefully our members who have been through this situation with their loved ones will be along soon to share their advice and experiences with you but in the meantime I thought I would provide you with some information we have on our website about what to expect when the time comes. I hope it helps you to feel more prepared but it can be a tough read so do only go through it properly when you feel you are ready to do so.

    My thoughts are with you and your grandad at this time.

    Kind regards,

  • Hello Adunnett; sorry your grandfather is so unwell and that you are worried about what might happen.  I confess I don't know anything specifically about anaplastic large cell lymphoma but like the moderators I don't like to see worried posters waiting for a response so am attaching a link to MacMillan Cancer Support on this specific subject.  Maybe a few people are away on holiday as at the moment.  The attached information gives you a telephone number to ring at MacMillan if you want to talk about y our worries for what might happen.  My best wishes to you.  Annie
