The dude was diagnosed on 11th November 2025. Stage 3 advanced gastric adenocarcinoma - at goj.
We kinda guessed it was bad - even though a gp had said a 7st weight loss in as many months was nothing to be concerned about!
Anyhoo - surgery was not an option due to other health issues and it was decided that no intervention would happen, just let things take their natural course.
We are ok with that. He is still losing weight and struggles eating as he cant swallow anything much. Thankfully he has no pain - but its the bursts of anger - its so unlike him, hes usually so laid back. He then decides he wants to go through every box and drawer in the house - but gets so tired he cant finish things so I clear it all away. It reminds me of pregnant women 'nesting' just before birth. Is this a common occurance?
