Posting for a friend

My dear friend Chris had been suffering from backache which had been gradually getting worse over the last year. He had a scan and then was whisked to a&e as there were tumors on his spine. It was discovered that he had 4th stage pancreatic cancer that had spread to the liver and the spine. He's still in and out of hospital with serious issues flaring up out of nowhere. He is the nicest guy , who has served this country in iraq and afghanistan. I hope and wish he pulls through. 

  • Welcome to the forum Open768 although I'm very sorry to hear about your friend Chris.

    I can't begin to imagine how difficult this must be for the both of you but our community are here for you and hopefully some of our members will be along soon to offer you their support and advice.

    If you or Chris have any questions about his diagnosis or would just like to talk to someone about all this then you're welcome to give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very friendly and will do all they can to answer your questions and support you at this time.

    Best wishes to you both,
