morning. I am caring for my partner who's primary is bowel but now has 2 mets on her liver. I dont know if how she is is normal....odd choice of word I know, or not. She is awaiting a pic line but if I am honest I dont know if she is just fading away before my eyes. She has gone from a positive person who all her friends said looked reasonably well to being someone who cant sleep, cant eat, huge bowel problems, pain in her liver area and looks so ill. Her oncologist has started her o some steroids to try and improve things whilst waiting for her next treatment but they do t really seem to have done much. my worry is with her appearing so poorly how will her body cope with her next round of chemo. am I just being naive i just feel totally helpless at the moment
Hi , feeling helpless as a carer sounds fairy normal to me as we sit and watch our loved one go through this treatment. The oncolgists will delay treatment if they think it would be too hard,
Hopefully the steroids will help to support her a bit and hope for some good news soon.
<<hugs>>
