Hi Guys. Sorry for being down, but had an littl setback.

Of the resection sites had started leaking they had to do a emergency operation last might. Started with vomiting Tuesday night that continued until Wednesday morning.

Got my 3rd emergency NGO tube and after vomiting 1.5l they drew out another 1.2L from my stomach.

 

Dr had to create a temp ileostomy to relieve the pressure on the sites so not to cause another problem. So morphine sucks to be on sill you are in need of is.

 

Thanks again for your support guys and girls

Cois, can we come visit you?

Moral support is so often overlooked. When you see someone else in your corner you tend to give it another proper go.

Would you like us to come through and bring some of the things you might be lacking/missing?

Agreed, when I was in hospital, I loved that so many people came to see me afternoons and evenings. I will always cherish that.

Sorry to hear of this setback.

Hoping things improve and the pain lessens.

You remain in my thoughts and prayers Cois, keeping fighting. I've got a little sticker on my laptop that was placed there some years ago when a friends daughter was fighting to survive from a large brain tumour (which she did and is a wonderful healthy young girl now). It says

"All will be well in the end, if all is not well, then it's not the end"

Be blessed brother.

and give you peace.

Fantastic news, what's the next steps now? Now that the tumor has been removed can the chemo resume and get you clear completely?

hi Robert.

They surgeon is only now going to close the wound. Wait for it to heal, see if I can get my insides going again, reverse the ileostomy, check the tumor in my liver, remove that, and then start chemo again.
