Devastating diagnosis

My father has just been diagnosed aged 82 with grade 4 glioblastoma. It’s devastating to see how quickly he has deteriorated. Mood deterioration and visual impairment. 
Seeing the person you love so much suffer and have so little option is agony. 

Think with the elderly , some symptoms can be seen as dementia or cataracts. Never occurred to be he has a brain tumour. 
Am struggling. 

  • Hi Bambejjatj,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm so sorry to hear of the situation with your father - this must be incredibly difficult and I imagine it has been a shock and a lot to try to process.

    We are always here for support whenever you may need it. I wanted to send a reply to your post to give it a little boost, so a few more people should see it and hopefully you'll get more replies.

    Keep speaking to others where possible - and it it's helpful, you can always use this forum to write things down.

    Try to take things a day at a time and look after yourself too.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
