Hi,my dad has just been diagnosed with prostrate cancer his PSA was 3000 so our GP thinks there is a good chance it has spread into his bones.He has just had a bone scan we are waiting for the results and has a biopsy due.My mum had blood cancer and she passed away 3 yrs ago but that was not related to the cancer she was only 64 so to be hit with the  news of cancer again has come as a massive blow.

My dad has taken it really well and is dealing with it amazingly and is carrying on with his normal day to day life  but it is me that is struggling to come to terms with the fact that it has singled my parent out again.My dad never really has had a days illness so this has been like a bolt from the blue.He kept it quiet for ages just put it down to getting older he is 68 but then he mentioned it and I booked him an appt at dr and we got the news.I am not sure if I break the news to my children who are both young or whether I just keep it quiet as I don't want to worry them as they idolised their nanny and they still miss her. Sorry that was a bit of an essay just finding it a very difficult time at the moment ,I work full time so I worry I can't keep an eye on my dad as much I want to .I am taking him to all the appts but still worry about him .
