My dad has been diagnosed with cancer in his stomach and oespagos, he has been unable to eat solid food for a few weeks due to pain swallowing, we though it may have been an ulcer or gall stones so really are in shock. 

The cancer can't be operated on, the doctors said that they can't get rid of it, chemo can be used to shrink it. I'm 20 years old and i have a brother of 12 and sisters of 9 and 10. I feel awful. My dad is holding it together while we all break down, we're trying not to get upset in front of him now because we don't want to make him feel worse.

We found out that the growth was cancerous yesterday and he is having a stent fitted so hopefully he can eat solid food soon. I've only read a few posts on here so I don't really know what I'm asking for. I just don't know what to do, I feel sick and then sometimes I forget and then burst out crying.
