Hi quietwren and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I’m sorry to read that you've recently discovered that your dad has cancer and it's natural to wonder what you should do.
The online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join the family and friends group as you'll then connect directly with others who are in the same position as you.
To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
Sending virtual ((hugs))
