  • Welcome to Cancer Chat Louboo83 although I'm sorry to hear about your dad's diagnosis and the reason it brings you here.

    As you've said it has happened very quickly and it is definitely a lot to contend with in such a short amount of time so I can completely understand why you're feeling shocked. Many of our members have been in similar situations and I'm sure they will be along soon to offer their support and share their experiences with you. 

    In the meantime I have found a discussion on the forum that may be of interest to you as well as some information about this type of cancer on our website. Just click here to find out more.

    Best wishes to you both,
