Dad - days to short weeks

My dad has stage 4 cancer and we've been told it's spread too much and we have short days to short weeks. My dad doesn't know this timeline (he wouldn't want to know). 

Has anyone else been through this? Right now I'm struggling to understand the timeline they've given us as he's awake, talking and joking, eating a bit and drinking water. But he has pericarditis and blood clots that they say even if they can treat, will come back and be life ending. Just so hard to reconcile that estimate and how he seems.

I'm in my 20s and just I guess looking to hear if anyone else has been through this as I'm trying to prepare myself (my whole life and work I live by timeframes for better or worse..)
