Hi my dad had one fitted earlier this evening, does this mean he is end of life
Thanks
Hi Raa raa and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
The online community is divided into different support groups and I'm guessing from your question that your dad has incurable cancer. If this is the case, can I recommend that you join the supporting someone with incurable cancer group which is for carers, friends and families of people with an incurable diagnosis to discuss their emotions as well as practical issues about palliative care and end of life.
To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
((hugs))
