Never imagined starting a thread on this board but i'm feeling really weird and scared. Found out yesterday that my Dad, after weeks of persistent headaches and erratic behaviour, has had a brain scan which showed some dark spots. He?s been told its secondary cancer and that he likely has advanced lung or stomach cancer?. He?s having another scan this afteroon which should be able to show whats going on?
We?re all in shock? Preliminary googling has been too scary but desperately need to hear if anyone else has gone through anything like this. I can?t help but think this is really really bad news. His mum died of lung cancer in her late 60s, he?s 63 and used to smoke heavily but not for 6 years.
I feel so strange, I can?t concentrate on work?
