Welcome to the Cancer Chat forum Riab although I'm sorry to read about your dad's diagnosis.

I've had a quick look through the forum and thought you may like to have a chat with [@monty1]‍ as his dad was diagnosed with lung cancer a few weeks ago so you may be able to support and help each other as your parents embark on this journey.

Hopefully other members who are in a similar position will pop by as well but if you have any questions about what's to come do give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040. They're available Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

Best wishes to you both,

Hi my step dad has just been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer so I can relate feel so lost atm. 

Hope uour okay xx 

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad...... Yes it's very hard, he's been so brave though he's starting chemotherapy on the 8th of July he's having 6 sessions.... Its not curable though it's just going to prolong his life. 

How is your dad is he having treatment? X 

He is up and down. There's only myself who is really there to help him. He starts radiotherapy on Monday. Ive not even spoken to any consultant s about it.

He had a fall and was alone on the floor for three days , as I was  was abroad. Ended up hospital   for two weeks. His blood pressure kept dropping causing him to fall.

Trying to keep him positive,
