Hi I really hope someone can help. My dad was diagnosed with Neuroendocrine Tumours around 3 years ago now he had hormone injections at the beginning that seemed to work for a wile then stopped so he then went on to have radiotherapy which was quite intense and effected him a lot mentally and physically he lost a lot of weight and for 1 whole year was pretty much bed bound but after finishing the treatment we was told the radiotherapy had stopped the tumours growing for a whole year and he has now gone back onto the hormone injections which he will continue to have for the rest of he’s life they also said that he can now get back to living a relatively normal life if he builds himself back up as he lost all muscle in he's legs ect. Since hearing this amazing news the whole family have tried to bring he's spirits up and help him get back to being his happy bubbly self but he is in such a deep depression we have had no luck and don’t know what else to do. We have talked to him we took him to counselling wich he refused to go back to after 2 sessions. We tried antidepressants medication which didn’t mix well with he’s other medication so he had to stop that. He has a huge family that love him 9 grandchildren lots of friends and we’re all here to help him but he just doesn’t want to help himself. He sleeps most of the time and when he is awake he doesn’t want to even shower and get dressed if anyone talks to him he barely says 2 words back he will just stare at the wall in silence and only see the negative in everything. The whole family are literally at a point were we don’t know what else we can do. We would really appreciate some advice on what to do next as this is effecting the whole family especially my mum who cares for him. Thank you in advance x
