Is my dad going to die? My dad is 63. He has had diabetes and scerosis of the liver for probably at least 15 years. Last week is liver stopped functioning properly. He was retaining water. They had to drain 33 pounds from liquid from his abdomal area and than another  12 pounds another day. He has had a blood transfusion and every test imaginable done. He has a liver biopsy yesterday. His daughter suspects liver cancer but is waiting on the cancer specialist to confirm. What can I expect? Is he going to die soon? Is there any possibilities his condition is manageable for a certain amount of time? How long? Please no rude and cold-hearted, or sarcastic remarks and answers. With my respect.
