Hi I just joined today, my dad is 62 and was diagnosed with primary liver cancer 3 weeks ago. (Although GPs letter says something different I have asked nurses about) he was told it's too advanced for treatment and now has palative care. He is home with my mum and I am going over everyday to help. He has lost so much weight but won't eat anything, the pills he is on make him confused which is upsetting as he is a very clever man.
I don't know what's going to happen and im worried about my mum who has arthritis and is disabled herself, she says they only need a carer first thing to help him shower but she admits she isn't sleeping as she has to keep checking on my dad. He gets up.in the middle of nigt confused but he is so weak he falls and can't get up. He has oral thrush again and his abdomin is due to be drained again tuesday. He was only really poorly a few weeks before diagnosis and it all feels so fast.
