Hi everyone I hope someone can help answer a few questions for me,
my dad was told he has lung cancer 6m ago he is 53 he had surgery but it shattered it and made it worse. He now has stage 3 advanced lung cancer he had loads of chemo didn't work now he's only option is radiotherapy which begins Thursday for two weeks. He can't swollow he's food as he feels sick when he does so on vitiamen shakes on morphine and other pain killers. He can just about make it to shower the rest of the time in hospital bed in living room with no energy it's also spread to kidney. He had a fall yesterday when he went to get up from getting his socks. I'm 25 with a 3y old little boy so I pop in when I can and text and call but I can't be a Carear as I have my son and my dad I'll as it is without a toddler running round 24/7 making him feel worse.
pallative care team come in once a week. Does anyone know a time frame and what to except next I have no brothers or sisters my dads on his own. I feel bad but not much else I can do family members pop in and out. He don't want me to worry but I do a lot so he don't tell me the ins and out. Anyone experienced a loved one I'll in this way and the time expectancy and the stages his health will be at next? Don't want to ask him as feel rude to but going out my mind with worry
kind regards char
