Yesterday I went to the hospital with my dad to follow up on a PET scan. I sit down with the respiratory consultant after my dad had two small Shadows on his lungs. The consultant hung his hadlow the nurse cried. I then found my dad cracking jokes I'm trying to fill the silence.The Consultant than looked up and listed parts of the body that had active cells - kidney, prostate , bone , pelvis and lymph nodes. I got cross and said anywhere else... My dad was floored I cried he is heart broken. He thinks a few tablets will fix this. I am so scared he is 77 years old and I worried if they cancer cells they will just forget him. He has a family grandchildren. He is so kind , funny and I cannot bear to watch him get floored with sorry...will they still give chemo , radiotherapy if it is a few organs. We are now ith the prostate clinic. I have emailed them asking for a date next to see them. I have not slept and cannot wait weeks for this. I feel heart broken with my mother in hospital too.
