This type of cancer can be extremely bad!
"he have had it past and it came rear legs and they said it was terminal! what does terminal indicate? Is this bad? plz back i am scared...thankyou"
The Doctors use the word "terminal" to indicate that nearby is no cure for his disease, and he is going to pass because of it. Your grandpa is on his mode to heaven, hon. No requirement for you to be scared give or take a few this. It does happen to everyone. Dying is simply a part of a individuals life. You will miss him extremely badly, and you will probably cry a few times because you miss him, but believe me when I tell you he is going to shift to a much better place. Spend all the time you can next to him, but please don't fret about his bug. May God bless you and keep you.

First, it depends on where on earth the cancer is located, whether they are going to try to remove it or not and whether he is going to receive any chemotherapy or radiation or surgery or any or all of the above. That determines how "bad" the cancer is. If he chooses to do zilch and they have told him it is terminal, it routine the cancer will advance and he will die. The time frame is disbelieving in adjectives cancers. Spend as much time as you can next to him, remembering good times that you enjoy had next to him and talking roughly speaking those times. Please dont hate these race they are not jerks. They are simply mortal honest rather than recitation you the rainbow fairy yarn that all will be very well and he will most certainly live forever.
The truth is destruction is the ONE thing consistent in energy. Terminal means statistically it will snuff out him. Statistically the elderly cant handle the strict treatment needed and statistically prognosis on a relapse is worse.
This will be the time that end of life span issues will be discussed. Euthanization (a planned peaceful death) requirements to be at least considered because it is mentally easier on the forgiving most importantly but also everyone else involved.
You yourself need to see a psychologist or other mental form professional and consider anti depressants. This will be a long hard time for you and you will requirement help. At the outstandingly least consider a local support group.
