I’m writing on here on behalf of my Dad, he beat throat cancer over 20 years ago after full laryngectomy surgery. Sadly last year he was diagnosed with bowel cancer which has metastasized to his liver. For the last year he’s been receiving IV chemo but this is no longer effective, the only treatment left is oral targeted therapy. But he struggles to swallow tablets!! Since the laryngectomy surgery he has always been prescribed dissolvable meds but we’re told that the targeted therapy pills cannot be crushed, cut or dissolved.
There must be someone out there who is or has been in the same situation?!?! Really hoping for some advice on how my dad successfully take the new oral treatment. He had dilation surgery 15 years ago which left him with no voice for a long period so he is reluctant to go down that route again.
Can anyone offer any guidance?
