Hi,
Basically what the title says - my dad has seen his specialist today, and even if they’re able to put him on treatment (unknown yet if it’ll be funded), he has been told he has months left. He has MDS.
We knew he was terminal, however not been given much steer on what to expect thus far (he’s been sick since 2019). It was a bit of a surprise today as we were all really hoping that he would be eligible for other treatments. Unfortunately he wouldn’t survive what else is available.
I also have a DB(30) who lives with them.
Unfortunately we cannot bubble due to Covid risk, and I’m heavily pregnant with a complicated pregnancy so in and out of hospital a lot - I simply can’t risk passing anything on.
Please could I have some tips and advice on how best to support my parents at this time? I’ve no idea what to do for the best, but know my mum especially is going to need support - she’s my dads full time carer, and doing a sterling job, but she looks so sad and tired.
Brother tries his best helping with cleaning, cooking etc.
Thank you in advance.
