hi my dad was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour in march this year.
he has had 6 weeks radio theropy and sailed through it . He then had a seizure a few weeks after completion of the theropy and has never recovered .
he is confused and very unsteady on his feet. my mum looks after him and asstsis him with dressing himself . but she has been diagnosed with cancer of the womb and has to have a hystorectomy and will be off her feet for weeks .
im worried about the care that will be given by social services while mum is in hospital .
me and my family will do all we can but dad cant be left alone and the think he can im worried sick .
6 months ago they were both healthy which makes it even harder .
