Hi, my nan has recently been diagnosed terminal, she has it in the lung, liver, kidney and pancreas. The Drs have had no success with a biopsy as my nan can’t manage it. And I don’t think she will be taking treatment as her bloods aren’t good. Basically my question is, I am 700 miles away and have arranged to go there at the end of April. should I consider going before ? as with no biopsy there’s no time line.

Hello chips74

I assume your nan is either in hospital or a hospice. Get in contact with Macmillan hospital or hospice, ask if they could organise  an I-pad or a mobile that has an app so you can chat to your nan. My lad bought my wife an I-pad, as the hospital was in lockdown.we brought my wife home for end of life carewhen she was diagnosed in mid June last year, she passed away 6 weeks later

Don’t for get Chips74, April is only  a time scale. No doctor has the ability to predict a time.

Just sorry your nan has not got long, and my thoughts go out to you and your nan.

Hi Blobs,

Thank you for your reply. Yes she’s in hospital just now, that’s a great suggestion, I will look into getting her an iPad. I’ve decided to stick with the original date and be optimistic .

I’m sorry for what your wife and family went through, wishing you all the best.
