I originally came on here last year when my Dad was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer with secondaries in the peritoneum(spelling not a strong point) I didn't want to post then as I knew he may look on here for information and didn't want him reading about how desperately frightened I was for him.
Now I don't have that problem any more as he can no longer get out of bed and my once active, amazing dad is entering the final stages of his fight against cancer - A fight he is losing but still fighting...
what a week, errol has been in hospital feeling quite poorly again very confused, ct scan on the brain was clear and we were so happy , but that didnt last long cause then we were told the comparason ct scan was not good more mets on his liver, some had stayed the same but more had increased in size so sinitib is not working so advised to stop , that was such a shock for errol he really thought that with all the side effects it should be working, this is the first time he cried ( really cried) and...
I think I chose the wrong time of year to be diagnosed. Because the surgeon has been on holiday for two weeks, he has a backlog, and the list which I should have been on - 30th July is short of an anaesthetist. So the surgeons secretary (lovely and helpful, I have to say) says it might still be done then,but more likely on August 9th. But on the other hand the surgeon is trying to get some more lists, so it might be earlier.
It's now five weeks since I was diagnosed, and I must say that despite the...

On Tuesday night, my partner had an allergic reaction to the platelet transfusion. His temperature skyrocketed and his oxygen levels plummetted, it was very frightening for him. The staff were terrific and managed to stabilise him. He has been put on morphine and arfron (?) since then as the bone pain has got worse. Felt very scared about this, the docs kept saying it could just be a side effect of the GCFS but today we found out that the Leukaemia is back with a vengeance. I kept hoping that our...
