Went to see the oncologist on Wed and he admitted clive for iv fluids. He had got quite dehydrated and also had a ct scan done . They decided he needed a stent putting in straight away, as he hadn't kept much down since Sunday. They needed to check the tumour wouldn't push on his airway if he had a stent in.
