Thanks. To be honest he's gone on about six months longer than anyone expected, but that's partly why it seems so wrong that he has to put up with what he's going through now, the time for it to end for him was months ago. It's actually astonishing what the human body can take and still stay...
My father in law is in the final stages of pancreatic cancer at the moment, I'd be surprised if he lasted the week. The time for him to die was about two months ago, before it got to this horrific stage. He should have been able to make that decision.
