Thanks, I appreciate it.

Unfortunately, I don't see that happening in this case. I hope I'm wrong, but he's deteriorated pretty quickly in a short time. And thanks again, you two.

He's been given 3 to 4 months left to live, but that's the average, so he could go quicker or he could last longer, that's the nature of averages. We'll just have to wait and see. At least we know what we're looking at now.

Cancer is just evil, any cancer. You can't truly understand unless you have someone close get hit by it. I always sympathised with people in the past that either got cancer or had a relative that got it, but from now on, I'll sympathise a whole lot more.

Thanks everyone.

In all my nearly 40 years on this earth, I've never seen my dad so much as shed a tear. Crying is not his thing at all, much like me except even more strongly. So to see him sitting there, looking weak and skinny, crying his eyes out, was more of a shock - not to mention deeply distressing and heart-wrenching - than being told he has terminal lung cancer. I'm supposed to be the strong one for my mum, but she was the one comforting me as I stood - and then sat - there crying. What a fucking horrible time.

If I truly loved her, and I knew she truly loved me, then I wouldn't care how long the coma lasted; the idea of leaving would never enter my mind, ever. True love is way too hard to find to just throw it away because of impatience.
