my dad was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer nearly two weeks ago and he was given 6-12 months. he is being treated with pallative chem, but i am sure if he started his chemo this week or last week.

i am also heartbroken as i realised that my dad isn't going to be here when me and my fiance have saved up enough money to pay for every thing.

  • Hello Daddysgirl1982

    I'm so sorry to hear this news about your Dad. It's understandable that this is all a shock and that you're feeling heartbroken at the moment.

    Do you have plenty of support that you can lean on during the coming months? Friends and family can be an invaluable source of support and comfort. And of course, you are welcome to post here in the forum to chat with others or to offload . 

    Stay in touch. We're sending you our best wishes.
