Lung Cancer from Singapore



Dear Chris,

My friend recommended that we approach you regarding my father-in-law.

I am emailing from Singapore. My father-in-law was told by the doctor about a month ago that he has a 4th stage tumour pressing against his right lung. Last Monday, a biopsy was done on him and the results will be out this Wednesday. We've been told that because he is 83, an operation is out of the question. The doctor has recommended radiotherapy which our family is not keen on. We are therefore exploring the possibility of having you help him manage his pain and to control the spread. He has been experiencing a dull pain in his chest for the past month and more recently, he has been losing his appetite. The doctor prescribed him morphine which he hasn't taken.

We would like to take him to see you so that we can get him some herbal concoction and perhaps the pain tea. What would be a good time this week for us to see you, please? 

Thank you and we look forward to your help, please.
