New here!! My dad got diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer two weeks ago, he will be starting immunotherapy on Friday to try and prolong his life but we all know he hasn’t got much time. I am the only child so trying so hard to be strong and support mum and dad, tonight we have has the dreaded “funeral / end of life care” chat so we are all on the same page. I have a to so list which is my way of keeping my mind busy, but honesty I have no idea how to really cope with all this.
Thank you so much for sharing that Steve, glad to hear your wife is doing ok. I will have a look for the book, it will be really useful as I know we won’t be able to keep it from my youngest for much longer as she is a huge part of our lives and we see her most days.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
