Hello Jacobs12
I’m Steph and I’m part of the Online Community Team here at Macmillan. May I wish you another warm welcome to the Community, although I’m sorry that circumstances bring you here.
I was so sorry to read that your dad has terminal liver cancer and about how this is affecting how you’re feeling. I hope you will find it helpful to be able to share in the Community and get support from people who understand what it’s like when your loved one is diagnosed.
Whilst you’re waiting for other members to reply, we wanted to make sure you have the right support in place for yourself whilst you go through this difficult time.
We hear that you are feeling particularly concerned about your addiction at the moment.
Your GP can help offer you some support with addiction and the way that you’re feeling at the moment.
You can also search on the FRANK website if you would prefer to refer yourself directly to addiction services near you.
MIND also has a list of organisations who offer support with addiction.
We also have a Macmillan Support Line if you want to talk things through with someone who is there to listen. Our Support Line teams are available 7 days a week, 8am-8pm on freephone 0808 808 00 00, email or live webchat.
Please do let us know if you have any questions or need further support with anything at all. You can contact the team by email on community@macmillan.org.uk
I hope the Community and Macmillan show you that you don’t need to go through anything alone.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
