What to expect?
Does anyone here know what treatments may be offered to him, or would he just be given
palliative
care
(given his age)? I'm a bit clueless here - especially with benefits and social services, and need to wise up so I can give my mum support.

Mum
She is going to have
palliative
care
only. She is relatively comfortable and is just coming to terms having only been told today. All the family flying over tomorrow to be with mum and spend as much time with her whilst she is still well and we are able to chat to her.

Does anyone have experience of home care packages?
The doctors have said that she can now either come home or go to a specialist
palliative
care
unit. My dad and I would love her to come home, but I'm really worried that we wouldn't be able to cope (my dad's nearly 80 and isn't in the best of health).

Am I understanding this right? and has anyone had G-CSF before?
He doesn't cope under pressure, so his stammered response went something like 25% of women will be cured after 1st line treatment but if it recurs, then whilst they will throw every at you that they can...you are then classed as receiving
palliative
care
.

Miss You
We were referred to the PDSA and the only alternative they could offer was in
palliative
care
to keep her comfortable until either she died naturally or we felt that she was in pain.

Palliative Care Input
So, my question to you: has anyone on here, or someone you know, had
palliative
care
input for asthma symptoms?

End of the rainbow, or was it the railway?
I have been told that it is not possible to offer curative treatment & that any further
care
will be
Palliative
. I am allergic to Capecitabine (or Xeloda - the X in ECX) so no further Chemo is possible.

Hope even when diagnosed stage 4
To cut a long story short I was given a terminal diagnosis with
palliative
care
only. Lucky for me I saw a wonderful oncologist who commenced taxol and carboplatin chemo. I responded and had surgery half way through(once said to be a waste of time).

Channel 4 programme re: palliative care.
Are you looking after an elderly relative or someone with a terminal illness? Do you worry about the care they’re getting in hospital or at home? Channel 4 is making a programme about care for the elderly and terminally ill. If you are a friend, relative or carer of someone who is unwell or a patient
