My dad has mere weeks to live now

REQUEST

My family has been through hell. my dad got diagnosed stage iv lung cancer with severe metastasis to his liver and partial brain. Diagnosed May 9.

The last 3 months has been a very steep decline. We finally got to start treatment at the end of July and he only did two sessions before his bloodwork was plummeting so bad, he opted out of chemo. His doctor agreed. i Was so scared looking at his charts everyday as his panels went down to nothing (ie, his platelets were 198 down to 27 in 3 days).

Yesterday we were told he now has a prognosis of weeks instead of months. It’s devastating. I fought so hard to try and advocate for him and I hope he felt the love.

I started this GFM the last time he was admitted to hospital for his oedema. July 14th. He hasn’t been home since that day and he doesn’t get to go back home now.

This go fund me has shifted towards ensuring my mom has expenses covered when he passes. She spends 35+ hr a week at the hospital by his side, after working in the early mornings. She’s exhausted. This is the least I can do for her. And my dad. I’m not ready to say goodbye 💔💔💔

I’ve seen how he’s been treated at hospital. my mom has done too much, she deserves some financial relief. this has been beyond traumatizing for all of us. link below to donate. it’s all going to my mom.
