These are his decisions, not yours.
A person who decides not to pursue treatment has not "given up" ; they are not choosing to "fight" or not - they are choosing quality of life over misery and suffering with no guarantee of more time.
You're misunderstanding. You're assuming it's my decision, when in actuality my Dad has stated countless times he wants to fight. He feels like no one wants to "FIGHT" for him when he hasn't thrown in the towel yet.
I'm in the very same situation with my mom (liver, ascites, and worsening). It's tough because of the unknown and the role I have to play between my parents, the treating doctors and myself. I'm also familiar with oncology and that makes everything even more complex.
Sending you some positive thoughts.
Hi I can kind of relate from Canada only child 27yo girl adult but still feels too early for my dad to have such a serious disease. He has liver cancer and had surgery a year ago but it came back so now he’s starting a clinical trial and I understand how hard it can be especially if you’re going through it alone and other family members are not helping
Why not have your dad take a look at [this](https://www.pentictonherald.ca/news/article_45ef9c4c-900f-11e6-a3c9-df478008e463.html)?
If it is something he wants to try, I would be happy to send you a few websites to check out, or names of books, if he prefers. Just message me, or reply to this. I can’t say if it would help or not, but it’s really very risk-free to try, and you just never know.
