I have just found out that my dad's treatment isn't working. He has kidney cancer that we know isn't curable but always had positive treatment outlook. It turns our.his lung spread is worse and latest scan shows questionable images in his stomach as well. I totally get and am sticking by the fact that I can't see him but if he declines further I want to hold him one last time I can't imagine never having contact with him again. I am sure there are loads of us in the same situation but my question is am I wrong in thinking if it came to it I would just go and be with him? Would isolate mum to another room and no contact

  • Hi and welcome to the community though so sorry to hear about your dad.

    I can only imagine the difficulty you are in with this, I would see it hard to think that anyone could condemn you if you did though of course there is real difficulty in working out when that time is. 

    good luck with whatever you and your mum decide.

    Thank you and hopefully it won't come to a point where that decision is necessary and we will be in a position to just pop round as normal. Please everyone don't think I am being a maverick I wouldn't ever risk him or mum. This was purely that I know I am by no means alone in this situation and really just wanted to know what people thought so thank you Steve I really appreciate you taking the time to reply thank you
