My dad of 75 years old was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer in early January of this year. The docs say its inoperable and he's too weak for chemo. They done the nerve block and help his pain some but that didn't last but maybe a few days. My dad has lost so much weight, will not hardly eat anything. He sleeps alot now and has on several occasions became totally confused and out of it......the last two days he's been coughing up blood, on first diagnosis the docs gave him a few months to live......I guess my question is, by him now coughing up blood, is this a sign that death is near?
