My Dad has MDS he’s deteriorating before my eyes

  • Hi again  and well done navigating across to this corner of the Community.

    Let’s see if there are any members who are caring for family looking in who can give you some support.

    It’s so unfortunate that your dad can not go forward for Stem Cell Transplant but a heart condition is one of the big stumbling blocks that can stop being presented for the treatment. I actually have had two Donor Stem Cell Transplants and the journey was rather challenging and I now have a heart condition that was caused by the treatments used.

    You can widen you options for support by When it comes to joining our supportive Carers only and Supporting someone with incurable cancer groups where you will connect with others supporting family and friends and our Macmillan Support Line is open 8am-8pm (timings may differ across services) 7 days a week on 0808 808 00 00 or via web chat. This service provides cancer information, emotional support, benefits and financial guidance or just a listening ear.

    ((hugs))
