Hi all,

We have found out recently that my father has a tumour in his brain. He is having surgery to try and remove as much as possible next week. He also has quite a large tumour on his lung (which they think has spread to the brain) and it is also in his lymph nodes. We haven't had a prognosis for the lung etc but was told this week without the surgery on his brain he would have a matter of weeks. I tried to ask what his prognosis is but they couldn't give me an answer. I was wondering if anyone has any advice or been through similar as I'd like to prepare myself and my son etc if it's not looking good if that makes sense? Is the surgery likely to prolong for months or years taking into account the lung too? Sorry for all the info I'm just very confused at the moment and would like an idea of what to expect
