So sorry you are going through this. Check with the drs but a surgical mask, hand washing and gloves may be OK. They may also request you to put on clean clothes or gowns befpre washing and masking/gloving up but it will be worth it to spend time with your dad.
Hugs and prayers for strength.

I'm so so sorry. I have been where you are...it almost killed me so I'm here if you need to talk. Maybe try and focus on getting better so you can hurry up and be with him. Does your mom have any kind of device so she can FaceTime/Skype you while she is there so you can "see" and talk to your dad that way until your able to be there?

I am so sorry. I would go with the mask route too. At least you could be there with him.

I lost a parent to cancer. It's awful to watch someone you love, get so sick. I'm so sorry your family has to go through this.

I'm sorry to hear about your dad. I will pray for his comfort and for your strength.
Can you visit him and wear a mask?

(((Hugs))), and more big huge (((Hugs))).
My dad had prostate cancer, that spread and he ended up with several tumors in his spine pelvis, collar bone, etc. It sucks...there isn't an eloquent way to say it, it just sucks. .He knows you are there in spirit, and just know there is only so much that any one person can do.
I will be thinking of you.

I am so sorry, pjaye. I hate to hear that someone's pain is not controlled. My fervent hope is that they are able to make him comfortable so that this journey is made easier for him. P&PT to you and your family.

I'm so sorry that your father is suffering and that you are all going through this with him. I wish I could offer words of comfort. I hope that you are well enough to return to your father's bedside soon. Sending huge hugs your way.

I'm so sorry.
I often take vitamin c to help shorten the length of a cold. Might help.

Oh pjaye, that sucks. Watching a parent suffer is like watching your child suffer. There is nothing that I can say that you haven't already heard. Please take care of yourself so you can be back at his, and your mother's side, like you want. Sending hugs and prayers.

I am sorry. You are a nurse and you know what he is going through. Hopefully you can get through this cold quickly. Does the hospital have WiFi because he could have an iPad and you could talk to him that way. It's just an idea. This just sucks. I am sorry he is so unwell. I hope they get his pain under control.
I will do duah for him as that is what we believe helps alleviate suffering. Hugs to you and your dad and mum.

Sorry for you and your family pjaye. I also went thru almost the exact same thing with my dad earlier this year (he passed). Difference is that he begged to not have to suffer, rather than begging for more chemo. Cancer absolutely sucks for everyone involved. It is a new kind of pain when you see your parents suffer, sometimes life isn't fair. Wishing you all the best.
