Hi I am very much new to all this and we have been told my dad has months left and as a family we obviously want to make my dad as comfortable as possible.
I would like to know what you are finding you rely more on for comfort. I want to put a box together with things in that will be useful. Like big warm fluffy socks and some hard boiled sweets.
Any more ideas?
thanks
Hello Tiko I am so sorry to read about your dad - I can fully understand your wish to make him as comfortable as possible - my thoughts would be to ask him directly what he needs but I am not the best in these situations.
You might get some much better ideas if you join this group on the Community:

If you click on the link I have provided and when the page open up you join the group and repost or copy and paste your original post I am sure you will receive ideas much better than mine.
If I can do anything else for you please let me know.
Sending you my best wishes at this sad time - Brian.
