He’s so frail and his memory sucks now, he forgets what was talked about just 24 hours before. He’s going around the house doing dumb things, like this morning he got his fishing tackle out and talked about fishing tomorrow on Easter, when he can barely walk without stumbling.

Cancer treatment does so much damage but patients are expected to just be grateful and not complain. It sucks so hard.
I know, he said it feels like it’s killing him and it makes me wonder how much better he’d be off without it. But like the alternative is death
I’ve been having cancer treatment for years and honestly if I’d known it would be this bad I would have just chosen death.
Thank you. Your dad could try cognitive rehabilitation therapy if that’s something accessible to him. I haven’t tried it personally (shitty NHS) but I’ve heard it can help. Physical activity, fresh air and a diet rich in fruit, veg and omega 3 (there’s a good omega 3 supplement called Testa) could help. Even simply helping him walk a short distance outside would be something.
Thanks saving this for ideas
I’m sorry, that sounds like a very difficult time. I hope things get better soon! It’s good you’re being supportive, and in a sense it’s nice he feels in his spirit like he can have a nice day out in nature, even if his body can’t.
I wish he could go fishing but honestly he doesn’t seem up to it
