May the Lord heal him and keep him around for all of you for as long as possible.

Mary, Health of the Sick, pray for him.

St.Jude, pray for him.

My dad has terminal late stage metastatic prostate cancer and had stopped eating and fell to about 115lb. 3-4 ensures a day is what turned him around. There is also an old anti-depression med (don’t remember the name) that caused users to get fat because it increased appetite, the md should know. good luck.

It took my dad a couple weeks ago. Last doctor visit before contacting home hospice our doctor told him it had spread everywhere. I suspect even his brain at that point. He lost all will or appetite too eat and in the last three-four days his ability to even safely drink.

My prayers too anyone and their family fighting cancer. For months years actually our prayers was for healing. He outlived the initial prognoses the doctors gave him by over 8 years. The last couple of weeks prayers were for his release from the torment cancer brings it's host.

The hurting when skin is being touched is normal as nerve endings are extra sensitive as is the person with cancer trying to their remove sheets, clothing, etc. GOD be with both of you and your families.

Lord, in the company of saints in Heaven we pray for Thy servant Dick and his family in their hour of trial. Be near to them, Lord.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.

Prayers up for your dad, mom, and your whole family.

Notre Père qui es aux cieux,
Que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensés.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
Car c’est à Toi qu’appartiennent le règne, la puissance et la gloire,
pour les siècles des siècles. Amen

Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

That is very difficult---when his skin is almost too sensitive to touch. Difficult to convey presence and comfort.

We said the Rosary and the Seven Penitential Psalms every day at my father's bedside (you can find them online at THIS LINK--or you can find in your own Bible Psalms 6, 31, 37, 50, 101, 129 and 142 (though the numbering of Psalms may not be exactly the same in all translations.)

My father probably could not understand the words, since he was hard of hearing and we certainly were not going to shout in his ear. But he knew we were praying, probably just from the rhythmic murmuring sound, and that was a comfort.

And God hears.

There's only a little touching in the Anointing of the SIck/Last Rites, and the priest can minimize that on account of your father's touch-sensitivity.

Will be praying for you and him.
