My husband was told 3/4 weeks ago that he had lung cancer.
we then found out on the 7th feb it was also in one of his adrenal glands also spread to abdominal ( fatty apron area) and also the brain.
we were told it was incurable.
He has struggled to eat the last few weeks due to the pain in his abdominal area he is on oral morphine and also Zomorph.
he went from 95kg to 83kg in about 2 weeks he can hardly eat and he is just wasting away because he says he isn’t hungry or can only eat a small amount.
has anyone else had the same issues and if so what could be fine to help.
we are being send out shakes and soup from our caseworker for him to fry.
he has also had biopsies sent to 4 other hospitals in the country to find out what kind of cancer he has so then can treat it correctly.
plus he gas struggled to go to the bathroom the last 2/3 weeks and when he does it comes out like milkshake.
Just don’t know what I can do to help him , it’s heartbreaking to see him wasting away in front of me I know he wants to fight this for his little granddaughter but he just can’t get the food intake into him.
any suggestions
Excellent news, I wish him all the best.
