We got the world shattering news that dad has glioblastoma, 3 months ago - no treatment offered :(. 

he is my best friend and the funniest, loviest man in the world.  

3 months ago he was living life as normal and now he is unable to speak and has a total right hand side mobility loss it's absolutely unimaginable to see him go through this and out of nowhere. 

me and my sister have moved in with him to care for him full time as he requires 24/7 care and we have quit our jobs to be there for him. I'm emotionally and physically exhausted as hes a pretty big guy! No one can prepare you for caring for your parents like this and we are only 30 years old :( he's such proud independent person as well and everything has been taken from him, it's so so so cruel  

He's also started to have really aggressive outbursts which is so not him and I'm finding it really hard to grin and bare it all without letting it hurt my feelings as I know it's not him.  

im not sure what the purpose of this post is but I'm broken and at a total loss of where to turn for support. 

for anyone who is going through a similar situation, you have my biggest hugs and all the love and strength I could possible give you l!!!
