He as not had any treatment yet even though he as been in two different hospitals. We go tomorrow to discuss his treatment , don`t know much about it only what i have researched on the net. All doctors have told is so far is they can`t operate. they did want to put a stent in but couldn`t,
My dad as not eaten  very much for 16 weeks now occasionally he can manage a little soup, some days he can`t even keep water down.  they have said he can have a gastric feeding tube in on monday if he wants to , i am really scared now  because he is getting so weak, also he wants me to advise him on  what treatment he has or if to agree to the treatment, and im scared i will  make the wrong choice.  
 
can anyone give me any advice please
