I saw my dad today and he is very tearful, he feels scared because he is getting worse and is losing sight in one eye and has clear fluid running out of his nose. He didn’t have that a week ago and seems to be deteriorating. He now has an appointment on Monday to discuss treatment, it just seems to be taking a long time. He’s had his cough since May and it has taken so long for them to realise he has cancer. We have no idea how bad it is or how long he has. I know he’s had to have a biopsy and scans but then you have to wait 2 weeks for them to confirm it’s stage 4 and then another 2 weeks for this treatment appointment. It seems he doesn’t have time to wait for these appointments as his health is rapidly declining,
I’ll try and get my dad or his partner to contact them, I have no idea of the contact details. Thank you x
