hi
my dad who was diagnosed with an aortic aneurysm over 3 years ago was told back then he had 1 year to 18 months to live, as I say this was 3 years ago and since then he’s been strong and determined, over the past 6 months he rapidly lost weight and was admitted to hospital saying he was struggling to breath and just the other day we were told by the doctors that he has stage 4 lung cancer that has also spread to most of his other organs too, we were both really shocked with this news, they have told him that they are going to put him into a nursing home too, when I visited him today he was speaking but I couldn’t understand him as he was mumbling words and got very angry with me, is there a phsychological process you go through after being told such awful news? Ie like the stages of grief anger, sadness acceptance? As the first day he went into hospital he seemed much stronger but now he seems to have deteriorated in a matter of days, ie can’t breath
