Parents
  • My dad has just been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, he is waiting for an appointment from the oncology department but in the meantime he is struggling to do day to day things and has a very bad phelmy cough, can't sleep because of it, don't know what to do or who to get in touch with for help for him, feel like we've been told this devastating news and now been left to wait for his appointment in regards to treatment. Feel so helpless

  • Hi mate. sorry to hear about your dad. all I can say is get touch with the macmillan nurses at the hospital they will help you until you get to see the oncologist.  tell ur dad to hang in there. Once his treatment starts he should start to feel better almost immediately
