Husbands prognosis

Hi I really feel for you, currently sat next to my dad now who was given 6-12 months in feb and now in final weeks. I’m ok one minute then crying the next so hard to hold it together. They only thing I can say is cry when you can it’s a very sad situation 

Hi Deb , I'm sorry to hear your news , had he been on treatment and did they stop it ?  My husband also has advanced kidney cancer and the past few weeks progression has been rapid and now high blood calcium levels , he had another scan today and I fear theyll stop treatment altogether . He was given 2-3 yrs 21 months ago . I hope you're getting plenty of support xx

Hi wcd. John had been on Pazopanib for 15 months when it stopped working. He started on Cabozantinib last September and had a scan this March. The results in March showed it hadn't been working and another scan on 9th May showed rapid growth since March. They gave us the prognosis of 8 - 12 weeks on 11th May. All treatment stopped following the march scan. John also has high calcium levels and rapid growth in his hip as well as his spine. Last Thursday the pain became so bad he has been unable to walk and advised stay in bed. Finally managed to get carers in place. At the moment they just come in for an hour mid morning, which really does help. I can nip out and get anything we need or just go for a walk. All through he has and still is positive. Sam T. I do need a good cry regularly and usually in the middle of the night. Thinking of you and take care of yourselves. Boy it's hard and draining.
