We discovered yesterday its 99% my dad has stomach cancer, waiting for biopsy results and full body scan. I live 300 miles from him and it was the first time I'd seen him due to lockdown. They have said they will no treat the cancer as my dad has poor health from a stroke 2 years ago. He has a bleeding ulcer in his stomach caused by the tumour, which they said they will try to treat. My mum died of breast cancer, and all I can think of is how awful that was. In limbo at the moment waiting for prognosis as they won't treat it.
Any advice is welcome, I just feel my insides have been ripped out.
Hi and welcome to the online community
I'm sorry to hear that it's almost certain that your dad has got stomach cancer. I know what a distressing time this will be for you.
I'm sure you'll find that this group will be a great help to you when you have more details about your dad's diagnosis along with any treatment.
You might also like to join the family and friends group which is a safe and supportive place to discuss your emotions with others who have a family member or friend living with cancer. If you'd like to do this then clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there where you can join and post in the same way as you did here.
