Guest JanEK Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Hello everyone, What a gift to find this website. I'm primary caregiver for my soon-to-be-86 father, who moved in to live with me 5 weeks ago and has just been diagnosed with advanced LC. Hospice is coming to interview us on Tuesday. The doctor says he has weeks, maybe months to live, but not double-digit months, as he put it. I'm going to post another message re prognosis.

richinsdakota Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Welcome; sorry to hear of the diagnosis, its always a schock to get it...the prediction of 'months' may or may not be accurate, so just take it one day at a time. Post and read here and you will learn a lot and get lots of great support. Take care and good luck...keep us posted...Rich B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
