How much time do we have?
I’m so confused as to how much time my grandfather. 85 year old found out he has melanoma in his lung. He did immunotherapy for a few months and decided to stop treatment. January was the first month without treatment and in May he’s moved in with a family member and is doing at home hospice. He can’t really walk (not related to cancer). So he’s pretty much bed bound. He sleeps 16-20 hours a day but still eats decent for the most part. 2 small meals a day. I know we don’t have exact answers but any time frame? I’m just wondering could it be a year? Months? Hospice says they can’t really give us a time frame till he gets closer to the end. He’s asking questions but I just don’t have any answers.
