Just been told DP's Dad has weeks to live :(

I feel a bit useless. I don't know what to do, what to say.

DP is gutted and currently making his way through a bottle of Glenlivet.

I feel bad that in the 2 years we've been together I've only met him once and he's never met DS (not DP's bio DS)

He's never going to see either of his son's get married (DP's brother's wedding is in October), he's never going to have the joy of holding a grandchild on his knee. :(

Life's so cruel.

I think you have to be there in a companionable sense and listen rather than do or say anything specific IYSWIM

Can you or dp go and spend some time with him now?

He doesn't want us to go and see him yet which we have to respect.
