Im not one to usually one air problems out in public, but my brother in law nigel took ill a couple of weeks ago the doctors done some test and have told my sister he has a large brain tumour and are unable to do anything for him he has rapidly gone downhill the last week and the hospital sent him home yesterday to die at home so it is just a matter of time, he is in a coma like state and i just can't believe how quick this has come on without any warning, please say a prayer for him.

Thank you x

I'm so sorry... :(

Have you tried getting another opinion? I know, over here at least, the hospitals are so crappy. My Nono (italian grandfather) died because of very poor service and care while he was recovering from surgery. They practically let him starve to death because they didn't give him enough meals throughout the day. We always say, if you want a way to surely die, go to a hospital...

we lost a family friend last year to the same sort of thing. He was at my parents 50th anniversary but was not his usual self and a week later he was diagnosed with a tumour, which wasn't treatable. The day he died he had been out for a meal with his wife came home and said he felt tired and went up to bed while his wife made a cup of tea and by the time she took it to him he had quietly passed away.

No you haven't I just hoped that mentioning that our friend passed very peacefully might give you some hope for your brother-in-law. Sudden shocks are just unbearable and do take a lot of time to come to terms with, but for some people just talking about things can help. Then sometimes it all comes flooding back and a good cry gets it out of your system for another wee while( well it does for me anyway).
