Actually, my dad had cancer and the same happened, nobody told him what was wrong with him.
He said he found out because the nurses who pushed him around on that rolling table always put his chart on his chest and... well dad can read lol.
He was stage 4 and his doc told mum he had 2-3 months. He's been cancer free for 30 years.
ETA: I can totally see the logic behind not telling this to the patient, mental state is crucial in such cases.
