Shock diagnoses - Lung and Liver cancer

I don't even want to go on the holiday. I feel like how can I possibly try and enjoy myself when I know these could be his last days. 

His lung is completely covered. They will let us know in about any treatment in 3/4 weeks once they've discovered what type of cancer it is when they take the biopsy on Tuesday. 

Well, we thought he didn't have symptoms but he was losing weight which we put down to him playing alot of golf. He was also having a sports massage for his and back..but that was probably his lung. 

It's so frustrating when they take so long. I really feel for you xx

Were you going? It’s this wait I hate 3/4 weeks means they could be getting treated. We are wasting time but  I understand it takes a while. 

I think we're going to Spain or Portugal,  somewhere not too far.  

I understand, time feels like it's ticking doesn't it. I'm trying to just be in my daughters world to get me through each day.  

I feel scarily calm right now... yet I was a mess this morning. It really does come in waves

It really does. I’m currently at a music festival as mum told me to go! Feels weird

was it easy to go on holiday with his condition? 

Ah I'm glad you went. She definitely wouldn't want you waiting around at home.

We haven't booked anything yet..frantically searching for something tonight to leave in the next week or so. Feels like a horrible race against time...

We’ve just been given an appointment next week. Worried it’s going to be like sorry we can’t do anything…..

happy to chat via something else if easier! It’s really helping talking to you

Yay! Glad you've got an appointment, that's the first step.

Yeah sure, I'm happy to. It's helping me too. 

Reading your comments has been a huge help to me - going through exactly the same thing with my dad who has just been diagnosed with colon cancer stage 4. How do you know your dad is terminal Em? Have you asked for a second opinion?

Aw I'm sorry to hear about your Dad. 

They told him today :( although I did wonder whats the point in treatment then? 

We haven't asked for a second opinion.. my sister keeps saying we should do this but at the moment it's making my Dad angry. 

Did you get a second opinion?

Mums got so bad she’s struggling to breathe. I don’t think she’s got long left. Had to get the doctors here they say she has a chest infection. My husband spoke to hospital yesterday, stage 4 lung cancer in the lymph nodes as well, biopsy Wednesday if well enough but even with treatment they don’t think it will be months and months

im totally heartbroken
