Hi Ky, I can echo what Budgie said. You can only be strong for your family if you look after yourself, too- I know that sounds an impossible use of your time and energy, but it really will get you and your family through in the best shape possible. The best way to do that is to outsource as much as possible- you could check with your Dad's palliative care team (or even the Cancer Council may know) if he is eligible for any government assistance such as extra money, Home Help or taxi vouchers or practical stuff like that. You could also keep a list of stuff you would like help with, so when people say "If there's anything I can do..." you have a meaningful and beneficial answer for them. It may seem like an imposition, but most people who ask feel good that they can actually help in some way. I wish you all good things, Emily
