Dad's journey

hi D3bz 

Well on the one hand I know how it can feel to find a name for the beast but difficult to hear about the C Diff, we can sometimes overlook that all sorts of things are still out there.

Fingers crossed he gets over this and then get the treatment he needs.

Thank you for your kind words  

Just another little catch up so mum recieved a letter today so wine he was in hospital bear in mind was in for over 2 week came out on the 1st November and dnow to be told he may have caught CPE bug so along with C DIFF he now has somthing else he needs to fight before he can start any Palative Chemo even if that is going to be an option .. 

Just one thing after another 

Oh that’s harsh . When my mum was initially diagnosed with a spread her oncologist told her to go and have a holiday . There was no such thing as emergency chemo . That it had probably been there for a while .  So hope that settles you a bit as I know there is a feeling that chemo should start right away . 
Lots of infections pop up for cancer patients and they are experienced at dealing with them . My mum had six weeks off when she was on chemo for a variety of reasons and they put her back on it each time . I was worried but taking the time to sort the issues out does help get a better run at chemo .

Managing the worry and concern for your relative is so hard and it’s lovely he has such a caring family .

One step at a time  is definitely how a stage 4 diagnosis plays out .

Take special care ,
