Alan’s liver cancer story

Again another story about liver cancer that’s quite different from the survivor stories you tend to get spoon-fed through TV and media… Commented on Kaye’s Metastatic Liver Cancer Story

 

Hi,

My Dad also died from liver cancer.

 

When Kay said that they only had 9 days from diagnosis till Kim passed away, it was similar for us.

 

We had 2 weeks but my dad was fine in the sense that he was able to be up and about. His mental state was fine as well. Doctors said my dad had 3 months to live, but he just went into a sleep & didn’t really wake up..

The shock of how fast it happened was unreal, it was like a car crash…

My father Donald passed on the 16 July 2006.

He was only 52 & it’s still very hard to deal with it, like the last 2 years didn’t happen…

bye

Al

 

Thanks for sharing Alan.

 

It’s been 1.5 years now since my father passed away from metastatic liver cancer and like you, it is still very hard to deal with. Hard in the sense that I still haven’t figured out what the universe is trying to tell me by giving father metastatic liver cancer?

 

Although we had to cope with father’s mental and physical state getting worse each and every day for about 5 months (time between his metastatic liver cancer diagnosis and changing this life for a life without pain), we all had the time to give back some of the love we received from father.

 

I cannot even imagine how things would feel when the time had been as limited as in your cancer story or Kaye’s cancer story.

 

What I learned is that time is precious and priceless.

 

Give me a choice between 50 million US or a guarantee of a healthy life, and I will choose the latter in a split second.

 

Life is priceless and you only have 1 of it, just like you only have 1 father and mother.

 

Unfortunately we have way too much metastatic liver cancer patients.
