My dad has just been diagnosed with cancer and I have to leave him in just under two weeks. I'm a university student in my third year of a Modern Languages degree; therefore I have to spend the 2016/2017 academic year in Spain and Germany. I have already been in in Spain since September 2016 and I'm currently at home for two weeks, for Christmas. I have to go back to Spain, for a month, to do uni exams and then I have 6 weeks at home - in Ireland - before I go to Germany until August 2017 I don't know if I'll get to physically see or hug my dad again...and I don't know what to do or how to help him :cry: so any tips or advice would be appreciated x
