Evening, my dad is 78 and just been diagnosed this week with Lung Cancer and secondary brain cancer, liver cancer and bone cancer. His biopsy is not until this Friday and will be taken from the liver. Although he has not had the biopsy yet the consultant has advised it is cancer but they need to check on what type. They have advised that it is not curable but may be treatable depending on outcome of biopsy. My dad is ex military and has never been ill and this has come as a massive shock to us all BUT my dad is being very positive and wants to ensure that my mum is fully cared for in all of this. My dad is normally my mums carer as she has the onset of dementia, diabetes, walks with a stick and a history of falls. I was just wanting to ask everyone for any advice at all on how I should be helping them, any hints and tips to ensure that my dad and mum are looked after. I am staying all day with them and ensuring they dont do anything and I am planning to move in with them at the end of this week to ensure I am at hand 24 hours a day. Any suggestions or help is really appreciated. Thank you x
