Re: Reaching out
The nurses are just doing their job and don't really know how your dad before he was admitted, and if they are not concerned then take that as a positive. The nurses where good with us and we asked them what to expect when the end was near. U remember on the Monday mum asked one and said I don't thi...

Re: My Dads diagnosis
Whipples is a big op, but if that's an option then that's surely a positive as so many people don't have this option. My dad had it, but I would have also understood if he didn't have it as it's a big operation. He then had a 6 month course if chemo after.

Re: Mum's diagnosis
Sue, I'm sorry to hear of your mums decline, nil by mouth seems crazy, unless they are just wanting to monitor all fluids in and out. Will they let her such ice cubes.

Re: Tumour size
I don't have any experience of gasroparesis, but just wanted to say I can empathise, my dad was being sick daily, but his was not caused by that. Horrible to see your loved ones being sick and not being able to help.
