Remove Ads Read News Only In a post titled “My dad passed away, but he left me one last message” on Reddit, the user detailed his father’s courageous battle with a rare cancer, Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma of the Colon, and his last message. IndianTeenagers user wrote on Reddit that it was October 23, 2023, Papa was diagnosed with Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma in the colon, that too in stage 3B. He had to go through the pain of eighteen chemotherapy sessions, five radiation sessions and a twelve hour long major surgery. He was recovering, but the situation worsened again. On May 5, 2025, after complaining of persistent back pain, we learned that the cancer had spread again with metastases to the spine, sternum and ribs. Doctors again planned six chemotherapy treatments, which again proved very painful for him. After the fifth chemotherapy he suddenly stopped eating and then on September 8, 2025 the doctor said that he has liver metastases and will die soon due to the fluid in his abdomen (ascites) and high bilirubin causing multiple organ failure. My world fell apart. The night of the 13th the bilirubin level reached 50 times, his liver failed and then the kidneys too… He was still fighting, on the morning of the 14th we put him on the ventilator and the doctor said we had a few hours. I went to father and asked, will you leave me? I saw that the tears were running down his cheeks from both his eyes. He died with his hand clasped between mine. When I came back home after twelve days of Shraddha puja, I found her diary. There was a folded page on which was written – “For my son.” I turned the page, he wrote that if anything happens to me, or if any trouble comes with the family, don’t panic, this diary is very important… you take care of everything, as much as we can, as much as we did…” (If something happens to me, don’t panic, take care of everything well… I did everything I could for you, now it’s your turn, but I had a lot of things going on. understood he had faith in me and maybe he was content to leave behind a son he trusted so much to take care of the family. Also wrote on Reddit that maybe we will meet again, but at least not before he makes all his dreams come true… I love your father, you are still my strength, my courage… After this, a user said that I hope your father finds peace and I know he is proud of the courage you have shown in this difficult time. on the other hand, the user said, “Brother, very sorry for this loss.” Take care of yourself and your family.
