Been a while since i was on here last , my mother in law had cancer, and sadly passed away after 3weeks from being diagnosed, now my father.
He was diaginosed with oesophagus cancer in September last year, but due to poor health (stroke 8yrs ago) no treatment apart from pallitive care offered, upto a month or so ago he was doing well, but now on morphine for the pain, and becoming weaker, he has lost weight, but his stomach is like a 9mth pregnant woman, we have good days and bad, and emotions are up and down, he is in a nursing home and me and my sister go in every day and never know what we are walking into..
Hes a battler and very stubborn, still tries to walk but normally has to go in wheelchair , breaks my heart to see my dad like this xx
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
