My dad has been diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer and we are awaiting further tests to determine treatment plans and timescales etc. As my Grandfather died of the same cancer my dad feels that he is in the late stages and won’t be here much longer from what he has told my partner. 

Myself and and my partner are hoping to get married and want him to be here for it of course so we have provisionally  booked a date however my dad has now said that he doesn’t know if he’ll make it due to us not knowing his treatment plan. 

I know that this may seem selfish but I don’t know what to do in terms of a wedding as of course I want him to be there especially as he is my world and my sole parent but I feel that if we let this date go we may not get another venue at short notice. 

I feel also that it would give my dad something to look forward to if we booked it officially  

If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you.
