Last week I was told my dads cancer which he had six yrs ago liver colon had returned and due to his weak heart would not be getting any treatment..

His health went downhill very fast and two days ago taken in small local hospital. Spoke to doctor and told him my dad would prefer to die at home he said this should be able to set up but today I am told it will be impossible.. They need to deliver a bed.. Why can't he die in his own bed?  They don't think they will be able to find carers as he needs 24/7 care?! I am willing to be his carer. 

I now find out he is off all meds and food and will be lucky to last the next few weeks.  He is deaf so communication is hard.. His wife has no idea yet.. Hard enough explaining covid to her just now.. Anyway.. I am upset that my dad is not able to die the way he wants too.. At home with family.. I returned from Mexico recently so self isolating.. Was going to for 14 days but its only been just over a week.. I have no idea what to do for the best.

I just called the hospital and they said no visitors until I told them I had been on NHS website which says we can visit if he is dying so she said well you'll have to come in side door and put on masks and gloves.. I don't mind that but bearing in mind my dad's deaf he relies on lip reading so that's going to be hard.
