My husband was diagnosed in March with esophageal cancer also in vertebrae and gastric nodes been waiting 3 was for one of radiotherapy for pain in back, was told could claim higher rate of pip which he has also told could have a blue badge which arrived Friday, been referred to local hospice, where I know all staff and Dr's in the inpatient unit as I work in local pharmacy and we supply all medication, but no one has given us a prognosis for long term out look, my husband is well has food swallowing issues and was told after the radiotherapy would start chemo, he is furloghed on full pay at the moment, it's pain and numbers in his back arm and hand that's getting to him most, but I'm doing my own head in not knowing what our long term out look is like, when you look in to the higher pip and fast tracking it refers to terminal, and when you look in to that on gov.uk it refers ton6 months or less, I'm going crazy and trying not to show it, not sleeping don't know where to turn.
