Hi, my grandad was diagnosed with bowel cancer around 18 months ago, we soon learned it had spread to his spinal cord and lymph nodes. Despite rigorous chemo and radiotherapy today we have found out the cancer is terminal and his prognosis is around 2 months
He is still in hospital at the minute due to his magnesium levels being unstable and severe nausea but hopefully he will be allowed home soon with pain management.
I am in a state of shock. He is so fit and full of life its a massive blow. Is anybody going through the same thing?
