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!!!
Hi JasJb
So sorry to hear your story, that all sounds incredibly hard and so sad. Please consider phoning the helpline here at MacMillan, they are so helpful. There’s also a section on this site just for carers and families- you would be able to connect there with others going through similar experiences. I can’t seem to post links but will try to tag one of the lovely community champions here and they will I’m sure be able to put a link here. Sending love and a big virtual hug. HFxx
I think this is one of the champions …. Apologies if not xxMillibob
I'm very sorry to hear of your Dad's situation.
I've attached links to the Macmillan support page for you as HappyFeet1 suggested. Also attached are links to the friends and family forum and the glioblastoma forum and suggest you also post on these for more specific help and information.
