Hi there, my father passed away in June of lung cancer. It was very unexpected as he didn't know he had it until 9 days earlier. He first went into hospital the day my daughter was born and never made it back home. I've been looking for some sort of forum to share my experience and for support as it's been unbearably difficult especially being a first time mum. We believe he was stage 4 as well when he passed away. My thoughts are with you and your wife.
