Hi all. not been on here for a while. my father has cancer of the gullet and after three 4 day courses of chemo is now finally ready for the operation.
he is being operated on tomorrow first thing (8 hours op) and tonight when we visited him at the hospital he was barely managing to hold it together. we had to pull the curtains round as it was very upsetting for us all. i'm struggling with the thought that he may not even pull through the op. we are all pretty devasted that at the age of 76 he is having to deal with something like this. the various doctors have told him exactly what the operation entails and tbh this is freaking my father out. i know that he is fit enough for the op, but there are so many complications and the idea that his stomache will be up near his chest after the op is quite scary.
i'd jst like to ask for good vibes for my dad. thanks ☹️
