My dad is currently terminally ill and currently in hospital with cancer in many areas of his body. He does not want to know the timescale he has left, but my mother feels she needs to know so she can plan ahead.
The doctors have said they cannot tell her this without his consent even though she is wife/carer to him.
Is this right and has anybody struggled with this before? We feel very in the dark with everything and it's making it so much harder to cope with.
