Hi I'm sitting here looking at this title MY FATHER DIAGNOSED WITH TERMINAL BOWEL CANCER ! And it feels like its someone else's father, not mine he went into hospital about 6 weeks ago with what was a suspected appendicitis when they opened him up they found a tumour the size of a football in his bowel. No symptoms at all! He was given a 20% chance of surviving 3 months, then told 2 months. We are now at 6 weeks, I'm so afraid of a future without my dad, besides some weight loss and a stoma bag he seems normal and acts it to it messes with my head as I find it so hard to accept this is the fate we have. Can anyone give me any advice on how to get through this i feel so numb not sure how to cope with this.
