Hello,
My Dad (56, non smoker) was diagnosed with lung cancer a few days before Christmas and after continuing tests and long wait times we were told yesterday that he actually has stage 4 melonoma cancer that has spread to his organs. I’m in complete shock especially as the DRs and people alike keep saying but he’s young fit and healthy... then why did this happen to him?! They want to do immunotherapy but say that could give him 10 months to 2 years, I’m trying to research how/where I can get this time frame extended or if there is anyone outside of the UK who has advanced treatment for this but the internet is a mind field and I’m an emotional wreck and this is the first time I’m reading many of these medical words so I’m not sure I’m understanding. I’m 25 and am in a long term relationship - should I get married now or rush to have kids so my dad can be there? Frustratingling I’m studying an MA up North but home is in the South so I can’t get home as much as I want, should I drop out and be with him at home? I feel like I will wake up soon and the nightmare will end...
Sorry for the word splat x
