mesothelioma support
My dad has mesothelioma cancer, what should I expect?

My dad is 49 and has mesothelioma in his abdomen. He just got surgery to remove the tumors and started his first treatment of chemo during surgery. What should I expect and what can I do to support/take care of him?

If you are the once caring for him you really should have gone with him to his doctor’s appointments so you would know what to expect. Go with him to his next chemo appointment and speak with his oncologist. This is a very lethal disease with a 5 year survival rate of less than 10%.
