Hi there Zobes, welcome to the forum, but so sorry for why you are here. Your brother is so young to have been diagnosed with so much cancer and also that it wasn't even showing symptoms until recently. You say that your brother isn't able to explain a lot about the type of cancer that he has; that isn't unusual when one is first diagnosed. The initial reaction to a cancer diagnosis is usually shock, followed by disbelief and confusion as to how and why this has happened. Being so young makes it even harder to digest for your brother I'm sure. Add to all of this, he has a young child and another one on the way, so I'm sure his worries are all over the map. Does he have someone accompany him to apts. and treatments? Whoever is going with him can ask questions of his medical team as long as he is okay with that. His treatment team could also provide family members with printed material on the kind of cancer he has and also the treatment they are giving him. Perhaps you could go to his medical apts. with him if its' at all possible. He would have to agree with that however, but it would also be a support to him as well.

The other thing you can do is contact the nurses on this site once you learn more about his disease and treatments. They are very good to answer questions and explain the different treatments.

My heart goes out to your brother and his young family, as well as all of you, his siblings and parents.

Come back on the forum and let us know how things go for your brother and also to get information and support for yourself as you go through this journey with your brother.

Take care.

Lorraine
