Hi rbalwaysw,

Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm so sorry to hear of your situation - I can only imagine how incredibly difficult this must be. It's good to hear you have a good support network around you but I know this won't make certain things any easier.

Hopefully you will be able to take some positives from this, even if it might not feel like it, such as the opportunity to spend time with your Dad, talk about things, make a few more memories, and so on.

Keep looking after yourself among all this too. Do what you can and need to to support your Dad and those around you, but also make sure you're taking care of yourself. Speak to others where it's helpful - and hopefully this forum can also provide some small support to you, in terms of reaching out to others who understand or may be in a similar situation.

Wishing you all the best,

Ben

Hi there I understand what you are going through my parent has terminal cancer and has just started chemotherapy I live far from him and he was ill for a while and I didnt really know my parents separated and I like you have regrets of not improving the relationship before this time now it's like I'm trying but it's too late. He may not see me down the isle I have children and dad helped buy my wedding dress lots of things are happening right now so I understand how overwhelming it is I feel numb and so sad every time I think about it but I know dad wants me to get on and loves me even though we barley said it to each other we barley hug or anything I know it's just our personalities with each other I hope you feel better soon.my parent in 60s aswell
