Hi All............just letting off some steam here.
Some off you may remember my dad was diagnosed with lung cancer just before christmas.
Well he has responded quite well to a course of radiotherapy and mentally has been really strong. We know the odds but are very happy with this respite.
As a family we are supporting him and I think together we are managing well.
Anyway..........went to see him yesterday and he had a pile of leaflets from a well-meaning distant family member telling him how to cure his cancer with obscure suppliments and oils.
One list from the internet, two pages of these extracts of whatever, had the disclaimer that 'if no improvement occurs it would be because he had not taken all the suggested eliments or not enough of a particular one.'
You can imagine the cost of them all.
I was really upset to see his face when I poo-pood this. He did agree, but of course he would like a cure like that.
Why do people do this:yell::hissy:
