Dear onos,
how heartbreaking for you my heart goes out to you.
have you asked why the appointments were delayed so often that is crucial ?
There is an organisation called Maggies that are really helpful for people like us in the community in addition to Macmillan try them for help support which you need to cope with this situation.
You are not alone always remember that
Huge hug
with love
