My dad had surgery, chemo and radiotherapy earlier this year for a very aggressive malignant brain tumour. He made a really good recovery. We knew the tumours would come back again but didn't expect it so soon.
He was supposed to be coming over here for Christmas (he lives in Australia) but can't come now obviously. It would cost us £6500 to go there.
I just feel so sad, I saw him in August which was wonderful but don't know if I can get to see him again before he dies. I know he hasn't got long but I don't think he realises that despite the doctors telling him - I can't work out if he's trying to be positive or if he's in denial.
I wish I could be there with him
