Hi everyone. Well this is a place I didn’t expect to be, but i guess that’s what everyone else first thought too. My dad was recently diagnosed with bile duct cancer after going back and forth to his surgery for a year, with various symptoms and feeling awful most of the time. We decided to pay for a private ct scan, as the wait for various tests takes weeks by the least. Thank goodness we did as my dad now has a reason to what has been going on, and he now knows he wasn’t going crazy and it wasn’t just in his head.
I decided to join this group as knowledge is power as they say, but I feel so helpless and emotional and struggling to continue to work without breaking down in tears. I’m the eldest of six too and everyone has their own opinions and emotions, and we all agree that whatever our dad wants or doesn’t want to do, we all agree that it’s his decision, but it’s throwing so much angst up in the family it’s awful. Our mum has mental health and mobility issues, so we have to consider her in amongst this too.
