Good morning.
I dont really know where to start but will try and explain. About 4 weeks ago my dad thought he might of had a stroke. My mum called gp who said she didnt think so.
2 weeks later he woke up and had a numb leg so rang dr who refered to a and e.
He was kept in and had scans and a chest xray. Which showered he had had a stroke and also showed and old stroke.
2 days later sent home with appointment for chest and brain scan.
All was well till the saturday morning when he had pain in his back.
Went back to a and e and was given co codamal and an letter saying no further treatment needed.
Anyway that evening he slipped off the bed and couldnt feel his arm.
Ambulance was called and taken to a and e where it was comfirmed he had a seizure from the stroke. He was put on steroids and anti seizure meds and kept in.
His 82 fit and heathy but slightly deaf so has trouble with the mobile phone.
On the monday mum called the ward to see how he was who ever answered asked what he was in for. Mum said a stroke.
Person looked at notes and said not stroke but brain tumor.
By thursday junior dr said he has lung cancer that has spread to brain and liver and he has 6 weeks to live.
Today there is a meeting which we were told we could ask questions to be put forward and to call at 9am.
Called today meeting already started and cant talk to anyone.
Also dad called as they forgot to give him half his tablets this morning.
Nurse went back to check and realised she had missed a page. Any help much appreciated.
