My husband was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer in 2023 and it later became stage 4 with metastasis to the lungs and local areas.

We have exhausted all treatment options and currently are waiting to meet with clinical trials. The doctor said the tumor in his pelvic (peritoneal cavity) is growing but not towards any immediate vital organs. So, he is unsure if he can predict survival time.

I keep hearing people saying that once things get bad then it gets bad very quickly and I'm afraid that I'm seeing that in my husband. His leg pain is worsening and he can barely walk.

My question is, when do you know that it's time? We want to be planful with our future.
