Hi Eve,
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply.
As soon as I read your post I contacted Ellen who was absolutely brilliant.
Dad will be having a blast of radiotherapy next week on his hip to help relieve the pain he is experiencing, hopefully this will do its job.
I imagine my dad would benefit from seeing a specialist councillor to talk through his worries and anxieties but he has never been a big talker. I have tried to ask him if he would consider it but it fell on deaf ears. I don't want to force him into something he isn't comfortable with but I do think he needs a little nudge perhaps. Ellen told be about the peer to peer scheme which again I think would be a brill idea, its all very well me trying to say the right things but I'm fortunate that I don't have first hand experience of this and maybe if dad spoke to someone who does he may get a little light relief.
Thanks once again Eve and best wishes to you.
Georgie
