My dad (61) has just been diagnosed with cancer in the bowel, liver, lungs & gallbladder. Hes been suffering with pains for about 6 months and was told it was a hernia so just put it down to that. This last couple of weeks hes been in agony and screaming in pain. He went to a&e last week and they said it was just his hernia and he was constipated. Mum made him a doctors appointment for Wednesday and the doctor sent him straight to hospital for tests. 

7:30pm on Wednesday it was confirmed he had cancer. Hes having a camera to see how big the tumour is in his bowel and they are having a meeting about him to discuss his options. 

We are obviously in lockdown so hes alone in hospital, mums alone at home and im 60 miles away. 

I am going to drop some supplies off when hes home as I said they musnt leave the house unless its for the hospital. 

I feel so empty, hurt & confused. I cant stop crying.
