My beloved partner was diagnosed with esophageal cancer in Dec 2016 and very quickly then told he also had secondary cancer in his liver and lungs. We were told last week that palliative chemo isn't an option because his breathing is so poor as he also has pulmonary embolisms in both lungs. We have been given 4-6 months. Its breaking my heart to see my once vital and energetic man struggle for breathe simply walking a few steps.We may be offered radiotherapy on his enlarged lymph nodes on which are pressing on his windpipe but its not a certainty.
